    Tried the O ring thing

    Works but far from perfect.

    It's just about specs of the project. As Mother Nature, but way faster.
    I think the only way to undertstand is to use it. I'll do. After, I'll share.
    In theory, Oumo Sparrow is a game changer. I hope in practise too.

    They have said that about every synthetic that has come on the market. When I see twenty or so reviews for "the one" then you'll get my attention.

    However, I applaud you being the guinea pig.

    Actually, not. Others have shared good experience, before I think to buy a new brush.
    I've plenty of perfect synths, for my needs.

    They're very nice looking brushes. I personally have no issues about it being synthetic. I just like the stiffness without scratchiness of boar. If they can replicate that without it feeling like a toothbrush then I'd gladly buy one.

    After a month of daily use, I realized that Sparrow is a world in its own right.
    The latest generation of synthetics, after Mother Lode. Same sweetness of the tips, the best.
    No whip effect, no glue bubble. Very thin fibers, tied by hand with a unique and very high density.
    Following the concept of Wald, but at human prices. This leads to a massage superior to other synthetics, comparable with an excellent natural Silvertip.
    In practice, I think it is the perfect union of the two worlds. With all the advantages of synthetics, but without the disadvantages of natural.
    With the right setting, on a suitable handle, it can be perfect.

    For me, the Babel handle is nice but uncomfortable.
    Wide section, makes the grip less comfortable.
    But especially the resin is heavy. Much more than wood.
    In fact it weighs more than 50% more than others with similar dimensions:
    • Knot 27mm
    • Loft 50mm
    • Height 115mm
    • Weight 93g

    Default Oumo Brush: Super Fiber

    Not sure I'm interested in a new version of Muhle STF.

    What do you think about?
