Gentlemen,
For those who dismiss a glorious shave brush as an expensive waste, or no better than a $10 object with a handle and a clump of fuzz passing for a shave brush, and for those who look down their nose on those of us who appreciate a fine shaving brush much in the way we appreciate the other finer things in life, for those people, I say . . .
Have you ever lathered with the majestic Wiborg? Or the Thater with tips as sweet as an angel's kiss? Or the Rooney "Heritage" that softens even the toughest of beards? Or the hearty Simpson that spikes the spirit every shave? Or the gentle shavemac that paints the face with an artist's stroke? Or the Savile Row that tucks the skin in pure silk?
If you have never tried these wonders of the shaving world, well . . .Last edited by Obie; 03-26-2016 at 01:43 AM.

Fendrihan recently replaced a defective brush for me with a three band Polo 8 Super Badger, and surprisingly, it has some nice scritch to it, unlike the much older 2-band Polo 10 SB I have which is as smooth as silk on the face, which I'm finding I don't like as much.
Having said that, my Morris & Forndran L7 just stands in a league of it's own, backbone, fantastic feel on the face, so much so that the Thater, Plisson, Rooney are all nicely tucked away in their original boxes, along with the Polo 10. The Simpsons Chubby 1 SB is a go to for me for face lathering, a complete great brush IMO.
For me, the brush is the foundation of my shave experience....
