Have you read the brush primer in the shave brush forum? It may help you come to a decision.

You're welcome. It is really hard to advise someone what brush to get even if you know the price point the person is looking at, how they like the knot to feel on the face, do they bowl or face lather, what size knot they like and so on.

Take a look at Stirling Soap Company brushes. Both badger and boar reasonably priced. The badgers are great. I’ve got four.

I've actually decided that when I get my first badger brush it will be theirs. I had narrowed my choices to them or Whipped Dog. I've yet to see anything but good reviews about Whipped Dog. However, I was pleased to find out Stirling is located in a town I grew up playing in football. We had the same relatively rare mascot, Bearcats. I'm glad their soaps and brushes get pretty good reviews.
