Thread: Is this actual badger hair?

I would recommend the 24mm , finest badger , with extra hair . That's what I use , anyway . Get yourself the handle of your choice , and some 30 min. epoxy glue , glue the knot to the handle , and let the 30 min. epoxy , cure for at least 24 hours , before you use the brush .

ive got good knots from them , i though i noticed or someone said for $10 they will now set the knots in .. ??? not sure but unless your gonna use the epoxy again ($5 for the epoxy i use ) you may wanna just have them set it if you go that route .....

+1 on the Whipped Dog silvertip. I couldn't be more pleased with mine, and Larry is always a pleasure to work with.

I use parker pure badgers. I also have an AOS best badger. they feel the same to me. you have to ask yourself if you want a very soft or you don't mind a stiffer brush. my son has a AOS silvertip, I find it too soft. the parkers are on ebay for about $40 delivered. star shaving has some fine badgers reasonably priced.
