So I had a brush laying around that was a freebie. I also had two more knots lying around from my last order. Add onto that a friend who was wanting to try a badger brush, and you've got yourself a weeknight project.
The brush is a Klenzo, and was pretty grungy to start out.

After getting the old knot out, I was surprised to find a plug of plaster in the bottom. I restored this brush's Made Rite doppelganger the other day, and it had no plaster.

The new knot, another 22mm black badger. They're from Ace Shaving on the 'Bay. Slightly less quality than a knot from TGN, but also less pricey. Still a very good quality knot. Soft, good amount of scritch, and minimal shedding after the first couple shaves.

All finished and polished up. Under the grime were some flaws in the finish and a couple scuffs in the plastic.

All in all, a good brush going to a good home.
