I'll try and keep this from becoming a long-winded rant...<br /><br />So I recently took up straight razor shaving and in no time it has become hobby of which I am quite passionate.  And most any wet shaver quickly learns that the brush & lather are crucial components to the experience as a whole.<br /><br />I received this brush as a gift and was incredibly excited to start using it.  Unfortunately, it hadnt yet served me through its first shave before I noticed that it was not performing even as well as the boar brush I had picked up in a ten dollar boxed set from CVS.  In short; with the Latherwhip brush, creating the lather was no more than a choir.  It wasn't until I had finally finished and was rinsing the brush clean that I noticed the large tangle that had formed in the center of the knot.<br /><br />One of the great things about wet shaving is that quality tools last a lifetime.  I don't know what was more disappointing, the poor shave I experienced after receiving the brush as a gift, or the dashed expectations after realizing that I wouldn't want to use this brush more than once.
