Wow, you're going to get a million different responses here. A lot boils down to what you're looking for as to knot size and ergonomics of the handle. Even after boiling it down to Simpson and $60 Canadian there are a lot of options. Simpsons are graded pure, best, and super. Super will be out of your price range but best is within range for face-lathering. If you are a dedicated bowl-latherer, then pure badger can be used there, but it's a bit rough for face-lathering from my experience. Best badger would be more versatile. Personally, I would look around on dedicated shaving seller's websites rather than the 'Bay, but that's just me. Good luck in your search.
