I couldn't wait to post a pic of my new brush. The mail man just delivered it to work. It is an Elite Razor silvertip. I decided on the Alternate Ivory and Damascus Steel in a 24mm. It was a pleasure to talk to Robert about the type of brush that I was looking for and he was more then willing to help in providing possible brush types. It will defiantly be put to use tomorrow morning. More to come.

So, the real question is, in the flesh does it appear to be elite?
It looks good from here.
Awesome looking brush. I've seen his brushes before and he does nice work. I believe the Damascus is the M3 Mokume Gane and the alternative ivory willbe a Recon stone. I bet it's heavy, eh?
I just finished my eight shave with my new ER "7". Bob does superb work. Mine is a 24mmx50mm TGN Grade A Silvertip also. I really like the color combination you went with. I think you are going to like it.
Here is a "post bloom" shot for you from today's shave.

Well Gents I face lathered her up this morning with some CF. I am impressed! I do not feel that the brush is heavy, though it is a little heavier then my Semouge 1350, but it is lighter then my chrome Parker. For me it is right in the middle of my two other brushes; not too much backbone, but not too floppy. It will be a great face lather brush for my creams and soft soaps. I will take a couple of pictures and post later.
