    Default King C. Gillette

    I saw Gillette’s new brush.
    It is placed in the King C. Gillette line.
    Already available for a couple of months on Amazon and in various chains in Germany, Switzerland and France.
    With its classic wooden handle and synthetic fibres, it is a modern combination.

    Not much in the description.
    By the way, I’m guessing...
    • average size
    • Gen4 fibre

    The look is not for me. Too bad they went synthetic.

    A few shave brush companies have gone fully synthetic, I suppose it's to cater for the vegan nazis

    So far there has only been one synthetic brush that I have kept. The other handles that I have bought with synthetic knots have all been switched to badger. So synthetics are a 75% no go from my experience. Also I’m not a fan of the handle either.
