    Use it and abuse it . It takes a beating, aggressive lathering and brush loading only makes them better and softer. Hard soap pucks are conquered and produce rich lathers. I think they are great shaving brushes the nay sayers wont convince me otherwise.

    This is mine. Much more "paint brush", then my other brushes (even the horse hair) but that is why I went with it.

    I must agree. I only have three brushes at current time. First one VDH premium boar, second semogue 1305, andVDH LUXURY. As ugly as it is and now that its broke in and all the loose hair has fallen out the VDH premium is my best, but running a very close race w/ the 1305. The luxury seems like the knot is slightly above the handle and bristles seem thin which in terms harder to load the bristles with other than their own soaps. Probably great w/creams , but don't care for them.

    I guess it could be worse. For you fellas who love your boars. I heard of a guy who married his horse so....

    Probably 70 or so years ago most men used boar brushes. They must have known something.

    At last count I have the following...

    Semogue..
    5 are SoC's, and three of those are refitted to Oscar11 handles. The others are 2000's, 1305, 620 & 830..

    Omega..
    48, 49, 4 B&B Essential LE's, a 45, 10066

    A couple of TGN boars all in oscar11 handles

    And a rogue Vulfix. I am sure I missed a few.

    The first brush I purchased was a Vulfix and I knew nothing about breaking it in. I sold it after a week or two of using it..

    Hard to see it, but here is the original Vulfix in my very first SoD pic..
