Based on the recommendations from the forum and my fondness for a small brush, I got one of these. I had been using a very cheap (and big) boar brush for many months...Man, what a difference. So thanks for all of the info that went into my decision...My affection for this little brush is already quite startling...I had no idea it would make such a difference.

I have the SR3824 and plan on getting the SR3122 shortly.

Enoy your Saville Row!

Personally, the two you mention above 'felt' very similar in size when in actual use for me. YMMV and all that, but just FYI. Best of luck :)

I was going to say the same thing - 2mm isn't going to make much of a difference in terms of performance or feel. You might want to step down to a 20 or 18mm brush.

yeah, I agree.
I have both a 3824 and a 3320 and there is a definite difference between those 2.

I love that 20mm knot.

Thanks for the heads up guys...I would never have thought that.

I could post a side by side pic of the 24 and 20 knots if you wish to see them.

I don't have a 22mm knot, but I would assume it would "feel" a lot closer tothe 24 than the 20.

Nice picture - its worth noting that the smaller knot is both smaller AND shorter.

As an aside, I think my "dream brush" would be the SR 20mm knot in the 3824 handle.

That was my thinking process in regards to the 24MM & 22MM but not going far enough.
