Excellent brush and shopping experiance - well earned high marks
This is an excellent shaving brush.  It has the softness, backbone and water retention that allowed for a great lather and is a minimal shedder.  I did find that as the name implies, that it lends itself more to bowl lathering than face lathering.<br /><br />Add to this, a vendor who stands behind his product and reaches out to you with instructions regarding its initial preparation, best practices for use and longevity.  And who will respond to emails for additional information.  As a fairly recent wet shaver I found this to be a nice compliment to the actual product.<br /><br />I see why this brush made a Top-10 list during my web searches - the product truly is well crafted, and this is complimented by the vendor's customer service.  Highly recommended.
