    Default Added another custom boar.

    I have been using a new boar brush the past month or so in my rotation. It is a larger boar: 26mmx60mm. I am really enjoying it. It is breaking in nicely!

    I have one boar an just can't get into it. To each his own I guess. On the other hand I do like the look of this one. Has the Simpson polo style handle. Very nice.
