Here's a pic:

two bands actually have three bands , but the dark portion is a lot wider than what a three band badger knot has.

So in your opinion, is it a 2 or 3 band brush?

Wow - that Chubby 3 Manchurian looks amazing....can I interest you in a heavily used Polo 10 Super Badger with a slight crack in the handle as a trade?

Some gorgeous brushes there, one minute SSAD firing off, the next BAD disorder winding me up......

The Butterscotch and the psychedelic one (is that one a limited edition?) - stunning.

And if you can't get LPL bursting with lather with one of those - nothing will....

Not limited edition, Simpson releases them from time to time.

It is a 2 band. I have the same brush from the Somerset days. Great scritchy brush.

Before Vulfix bought them, and moved them to the Isle of Man, they were made by a few little old ladies in Somerset, England.
