    Interesting. I have had 3 boar brushes, and no problem with smell from any of them.

    In fact, my Omega probably smelled the least. Curious.

    Boar's are tough animals unlike those sissy badgers. You can keep it any way you want with no fear.

    Of course cousin festus tried keeping his badger upside down but the critter didn't like that at all and bit two of his fingers off.

    Yeah poor boar, sitting upside down all day long at no joke

    I read the smell goes away quite fast, it doesn't bother me too much, in fact I'm starting to associate it with shaving already hehe, yes I went to smell and wash that brush at least 20 times since last evening

    Strange however, the brush (Omega 48 Professional) is HUGE, yet it is not as sloppy as my badger which I would say is MUCH smaller. Pretty nice.

    And however said a boar brush is prickly, I don't think you got a good boar in that case...

    I've got two badger fur brushes. One sits on the handle base w/the fur in the air and the other hangs upside down. I don't see any differing results.
