    You got it Mike! My favorite place other than Leevalley. I believe the piece I bought was 1 3/8 x 1 3/8 x 14" and it cost me $17.

    I wish I could find a boar knot that big!
    Too bad I can't enjoy shaving with badger brushes. I would have bought it for sure.

    You want a big boar knot???

    Just get yourself an Omega Pro 98 boar brush, take it all apart and save the knot. Does take some work, but it's possible. Then make yourself a custom handle for it. I actually took one apart a while back, and am in the process of turning a custom handle for it now.

    Here it is next to my smaller Omega.

    Did this some years ago. But I preferred to use the knot of the Omega 48 which I believe is the biggest.
    This is an Omega 48 replica in walnut handle:




    However, the knot is only 28mm in base. I wish I could find a 38mm!!!
