). It is quite a handful, but easy to use and get used to. The badger is a very high quality silvertip...fairly dense with soft tips. My first shave with it was with a Cobra (Feather Pro. blade), DB scuttle and Pens. Endymion cream. It was the most luxurious shave in a very very long time. The brush created lots of beautiful lather quite quickly, and the face feel was well sensual, but I don't want to get too carried away here. Tomorrow I will try it with a soap (most likely tallow AOS Sandalwood) and use the same razor. This brush is a huge extravagance (my fiance is quite generous); but so far I believe it to be worth the price. The beauty, feel and ability of this brush are extraordinary, and they put it squarely into the heirloom category.J.
