    I am mainly a badger guy but I have SOC and enjoy it
    pros: inexpensive, good backbone, gets better with time.
    cons: holds less water; takes VERY (at least 20-30 latherings) long to brake in

    I've just got a Semogue 1438 and it's really nice. Very soft and I've had it only a week or so (It did get a very good soaking; some of it in a watered lather). I'm a bit worried about the badgers, too, esp the Chinese ones, less so about the boars...

    The break in period (during which some may smell like a hog farm) is a huge con for boar brushes, obviously. No other brush has that issue. I do love how easily they load hard soaps, though...
