Jaguar Τurkish Boar shaving brush

[Doryferon]

I bought this Boar brush from a turkish store
It's a Boar brush,no trick with words this time
I have been told that i will face some problems as glue in the base of the bristles but i had to figure it out myself
Guess what,the same happened to me,my brush has glue overflow and some other problems in the handle.











The shape of the handle is good but has cheap lacquer on
I can not do anything for the glue in the bristles and the ring is not alignment correctly
A re-handle work soon will follow.

Well, if you said it cost a buck or two it might be worth it just for the puck.

Why did you buy it? One look and I'd have walked right by.

In Greece we say "η φτηνεια τρωει τον παρα"
Can be translated "the cheapness ruins your money".
For 16.99 $ is a lot of money for this crap,even an Omega of 5 euro looks "perfect" compared to this brush.
I bought it because of his knot shape mainly
In the photo i couldn't see those problem that i saw latter
Is this my fault ?

[HARRYWALLY]

I'd say yes and no. You can get an Omega boar for $8 here in Canada and I know they're good brushes. Why would I buy something I know nothing about when there's other options.

But, I say good for you for trying something new. It is to bad it showed up looking like that. If I were you I'd complain.

Have you used it?
Do you like it? Pluses/minuses on performance.
