Thread: Good travel brush?

Kyle,

I think all the little travel type brushes will work just fine. I bought a stainless steel bodied DOVO brush from Jim Ayars at Vintage Blades before travel season this year and am absolutely tickled pink on how well it generates and applies lather. I flipped a mental coin between the plastic cased turnbacks and this SS O-ringed combo. The SS won and as I mentioned works like a charm, but...I'd have to by one each of all the others to comment on their function. Having SBAD bad, I just may. In the meanwhile the DOVO traveller works like a champ.

best, Bruce

As a followup, I just wanted to say that I received this brush http://www.muehle-shaving.com/shop/_...h/1/23/81_H_72 in the mail yesterday. I ran some soap throught it last night to reduce the badger smell and used it this morning. It's a great little brush at a great price, particularly for those in Europe, for whom postage wouldn't be as large an issue. I love the look and feel of it. Like my other M-P, it's not too soft and produces great lather. I also ordered a cake of the Aloe Vera Oakmoss with Mint soap, which I have used before and has a wonderful fragrance. Despite shipping costs of about $20, I still think I got a good deal.

Good show! I have a small MP silver tip and like it very much for creams. MP also sent me a cute mini shaving brush that I've hung from my rearview mirror. I think they're a good outfit.

Yes, everything is well-packaged. I also got the mini-brush. I couldn't really think of anything to do with it, so I threw it away . Quality company with outstanding German craftsmanship and a service-oriented corporate culture, from what I can tell.
