Just used it this morning for the first time with some Arko cream. BIG wow factor! 10/10 for sure. I have the bulb. What do folks think of the fan and any comparisons between the fan and bulb for those (ahem) "indulgent" folks who got both?

Mine has arrived in the UK, I have to wait until the 15th of Dec before I'm there to try it.
Thanks Max, Great Job.
My fan has arrived in Canada without a hitch. Thank you Max and the others who made this possible. It is a really beautiful brush and looks a lot like my Simpson #2 Best Chubby. So that is 4 various Simpson fans (honestly, a pure Duke is the favourite) and 1 unused Thater fan.
This could get out of hand if I don't watch it. - I know all about collecting, I already own hundreds of pairs of the finest Danish cufflinks (my favourite pair is an early "future line" pair by Karl Gustav Hansen).
Now I have to decide if I want to keep it or sell the Thater. Max tells me that only a third of the order were fans. A very rare brush indeed.
Decisions, decisions.
I ordered it because I wanted to see if it was right for me. No big deal and certainly not agonizing. My issue is: do I want to start collecting shaving stuff? I already have 5 mugs/bowls/scuttles, 6 straight razors, plus stones and strops, 2 DEs, 8 types of shaving soaps/creams and now 5 brushes.
I realize that I have a small supply compared to many on this forum but I also know that I can ramp up very quickly. So I will leave it as it is and keep the Thater. BTW, I rinsed the Thater a few times and then lathered with Vitos cream and then with Cella earlier this evening. It lathered very well, as expected. I will do the same again tomorrow and use the brush with Cella and my large Becker scuttle on Sunday.
my one arrived in germany! looks fantastic. today i'll use it for the first time
