I purchased and recently received this Made Rite 303 Cased Badger Brush and I have a few questions for those who maybe more knowledgeable then myself. I have attached pictures here, the last picture is with my Whipped Dog 24mm x 48mm, and Vulfix 21mm x 50mm.
So for my questions:
1. Does anyone have any idea of when this brush could have been made. It is Caitlin, and seems to be quite heavy.
2. It was really scratchy and irritated my face and I was really hoping to pop out the knot and replace it with something better. It says metal cased on it, will this prove to be an issue when trying to double steam the knot and remove it. If yes is there any way to replace the knot without cutting into the handle.
3. Any idea of what type of badger it maybe? It feels quite scritchy, so I'm hazarding a guess as to pure badger maybe.
I guess that's it actually, just wanted to share my new brush and hopefully learn a little more about it.
Thanks Gents
