Thread: Scuttles. Dirty Bird

So, I know this thread has to exist, but I have tried to search it, if someone has a link to the thread, I'd love to read the old instead of the new.


I'm actually wondering if anyone has both the Brush and the Standard scuttles from dirty bird.

I feel both will meet my needs. But I like the brush scuttle because of its size.
However I still will want a bowl to lather in.... thus the standard seems more realistic.

I do not face lather but my brush holds all the lather that I will use, I really never go back to the bowl after my initial lather making other than maybe a couple of refresher swirls between passes.

So, whats the real pros and cons between the two.

I like the idea of of heat being all around my brush, but does it make a difference between the two? Does the other heat better?


In short does anyone have both, and whats their thought on both compared.... if their is another thread, please link me to it

Sorry again if this is a repeat. I looked and never found this, many similar but none really comparing the two.

Here's a link to some reviews on scuttles. They might be helpful. Miscellaneous Reviews - Straight Razor Place Forums

For me, Bigger is better. I have several different models, maybe 5 or so. I hate being cramped. I recently purchased a Double Scuttle from Julie at DB, it's great. It's over 6 inches in Diameter, holds 4 cups of water, and it seems so much easier to build lather in a big scuttle. I never use anything else....
