    I just got the Rosewood brush from Matt. Guys I can't help but say if you are going to lather with a brush you should skip the purchase of one razor and get a brush from Matt. I do not think you will not find a better brush anywhere in the world. Hand crafted from some of the finest materials on the planet and by a true artist. You have the options of materials design and Knot size you can't ask for better. I am looking forward to my next brush (Olive) when Matt's well deserved vacation is completed.

    I would just like to remind our members to take advantage of the great craftsmen we have available right here in our group. Folks like Bill, Lynn, Tony, Colleen, Joe and the rest of the members that provide excellent services and products. I know you guys are not getting rich doing these things and I think we may forget that it is out of enjoyment and fellowship we do this. I would just like to say thanks for all the things you all bring to the table for us to enjoy.

    I'll go along with that. The brush I got from Matt makes an ass out of every other brush I own, including my Rooney silvertip (which I love). It holds more heat and water than any other brush I've tried.

    Yeah, I can easily tripple that sentiment. I'm mad I missed the black tip kingwood which went for $35 on eBay. I was going to bid $60 and call it stolen for anything less.

    Can you tell me who Matt is, and where I can see his work, and where I can purchase his stuff from?

    Matt's nickname is Shavethebadger. Here's some of his previous work http://ca.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/london276/my_photos. After seeing it, I realized I HAD TO have one custom-made by him
