Replacing a knot

[Locobadger]

Hi,
I have a Bob Farvour 2 band badger brush. Handle dimensions are 60mm and the current knot is 25mm with a 50mm loft.
It is an exceptional performer and is by far my favourite brush. However, For a while now (about 6mths) I have been noticing a couple of stray hairs each shave. Brush still performs great, but I do wonder if i should try to replace the knot.
I have not been able to find replacement 25mm knots, but have found replacement knots at 24mm and 26mm.
What size would people recommend?

Don't replace it. Just use it. If you start losing clumps of hair, then replace it.

I agree with the above post.

I have found 25 mm knots, but they are not common. I would be inclined to use a 26 mm knot if I could not find a 25. You may need to expand the hole a little with a Dremel drum sander.

But enjoy the brush as is until the hair loss becomes severe enough to be annoying.
