    Default My Turkish #6 Boar brush

    Via a friend of mine a got a brush which the seller described (and some members copy the same) as a: "turkish #6 horse hair brush"
    From the 1st second that brush brought in my mind my other 2 turkish Boar brushes (the sellers described them straight and clear as BOARS) and of course i saw some similarities with my other Boars (i have 12 of them).

    Let's see what i got:



    Some residues in the handle
    I suppose were from glue,that was a negative impression.



    Oh my God !
    That ring has an acme that could scratch very bad my skin on painting moves !
    I haven't face that before,that's unforgivable.



    The handle has a poor quality finish and a cheap coat applied
    I wonder how much will that lacquer will last.



    Of course the catopse shows something that's 100% identical to all my other Boar brushes
    I wonder how a "turkish horse" brush managed to look the same?



    What a coincidence !
    Even that brush has glue overflow problems as my other 2 turkish Boar brushes.

    -So what i have in my hands:
    I brush that looks like my other 2 turkish Boars brushes
    Has same handicaps
    (for those will say that the price was too low i will answer that the price could be 2-3 $ more with a much better quality)
    That brush smell absolutely as many of my other Boars brushes and again i wonder how a "turkish horse" brush managed to smell the same?
    (of course i have made a de-funk work and i have use it but that's for the next post)

    -The seller says that is a horse:
    Where is the proof?
    Which are his evidence to support that?
    (sellers say that a pill can make you a stud,a lotion will make your hair to grown,a magnet set in gasoline pipe-line will give more Hp to your engine,a belly belt with batteries will give you a six-pack via pulse movements etc....)

    More photos and impressions will follow soon
    My opinion is that brush is a turkish#6 BOAR brush.

    "neyazıkkı domuz" means "unfortunately Boar".

    another one member describes there that his brush smell like "domuz" which is "Boar"
    Take a look for the brush that he is referring to:



    Looks similar with another brush.

    I have a few of the variously named Turkish brushes and tend to use them more often than my badger brushes. I buy the cheap ones because the three times expensive ones seem to be the same knot.I usually give some away during the year to friends and others with a puck of VanderHagen a razor and some good blades.
    For the money they are worthwhile but the shipping is a bit much unless many items are purchased at the same time. So I make a purchase about twice a year from a vender in Turkey.
