    Default Looking for a high quality brush with modern looking handle

    Hi all, I am looking for a good brush that has a modern looking handle. I like the omegas look and I know they can be high quality but just wondering what else is out there. I searched the internet but I do not see much.

    I would love recommendations from you all.

    Thanks!

    Omega's are good choice for a reasonably priced, quality brush. They are widely available at a number of online retailers.

    You may also want to consult the Shavemac website too. They have a modern brush line.

    The term modern is a matter of one's personal taste. That said, there's Dovo, Merkur, Kent has a couple, Pilsson, Joris, Thǎter, Muhle, and I'm sure some I've missed. I only looked on the Royal Shave site.

    Mainly straight lines, not the traditional ornate curvy handle.
