    Nice lather you got there. Do you face lather with your 620? I gave mine to a friend who just started wet shaving. Now I'm thinking of getting another one. I miss that brush.

    I mug lather with all my brushes the majority of the time. The 620 was given to me by a friend who didn't care for it. I love'em both but the 1305 is my favorite for sure. Both broke in wonderfully....but then again ,that's splitting boar hairs with me as I liked their performance from the get-go, they only got/better with age.

    I have the Semogue 620, 830 and Owner's Club in both 2 Band and boar. Each one is quality made and very pleasant to use. I rotate them all but the 620 is perfect for face lathering from hard soaps. Each boar has a slightly different feel but I enjoy using boars as much as my badgers. Variety of brushes and razors keep the shaves interesting.

    I can't disagree with that view. Cheers friend

    I have about six Semogue brushes and like 10 Omega brushes (I know, B.A.D.). I guess in a nutshell, I find the handles and general good looks on the Semogues to be superior. But those Omega knots are pretty incredible, and I feel, superior to the Semogue knots <dives for foxhole>.
    !! Enjoy the exquisite taste sharpening sharpening taste exquisite smooth. Please taste the taste enough to ride cutlery.

    I respect that. As they say YMMV. But one thing's for sure, Semogue and Omega make good brushes.
