Review (4/5): Small brush, but big lather
When I received it, I was surprised at how small the brush was. I complained that the original description failed to accurately describe the size of the brush. It appears that the description of the brush has been updated and now includes detailed dimensions. This was my first horsehair shave brush. It is softer than a boar brush and has more backbone than badger brushes. This makes it ideal for use with both hard soaps and soft creams. Although this is a small brush, it still creates a superb lather. I liked it so much in spite of its size that I ordered one of its larger siblings, the Vie Long 13071. Both are great brushes and both are attractive additions to my shave cabinet.
