this is my travel kit brush, works well

This boar bristled lather brush is soft and looks good. Lathers great. They also have great mug soap.

Great brush, it gets softer with use.

Not impressed with product. Brush hairs are not straight.

I have been wet shaving for several years and have tested many badger brushes over the last decade. I tend to look for a few things when using them. 1. The quality of the handle. 2. The quality of the bristles. 3. The quality in assembly.1. Quality of the handle: This badger brush handle seems to be made of high quality materials. The paint is thick (in a good way) and consistent. It has a nice shape in the hand and is easy to grip, even if your hands are wet. Good stuff.2. Quality of the bristles: The thing that I like about this badger brush is that the bristles are nicely shaped and have a good thickness to them. They are immediately soft out of the box (well, tube really) and don't smell nearly as bad as many other brushes I've used. **Disclaimer - if you've never used a badger brush before, they tend to smell like a weird funk. I like to wash them with warm water and peppermint soap in order to help curb that. It will eventually fade.** That being said, I think the smell went away after the first or second use, so great job there.3. Quality of the assembly: This goes along with the other two parts of the equation, but this brush is assembled very well. It has a nice steel ring where the bristles meet the handle and in a month and a half, I've hardly had any bristles fall out. I would say that it is completely normal for bristles to fall out after use, since they are glued to the handle and over time the stress of use can cause them to break off. This brush seem very well suited for long term use and the bristles are well secured.Actual use: I've tested this with their shaving cream, as well as a bar of shaving soap. It functions as it should and creates a great lather quickly. Pro tip, when you are working on your second or third pass, be sure to squeeze the bristles from the base of the handle and pull through your hand. This will ensure you get the best shaving cream from the center of the brush.Overall, I'd give this one a 10 out of 10. I've enjoyed using the brush in combination with the stainless steel bowl and their sandalwood shaving cream.

So I have used a synthetic brush for a few years. Decided to try a badger brush because people rave about them. Found this one and it had good reviews so I ordered it. I should have saved the money. The brush came and I decided to try it out. Soaked it while in the shower. Loaded it with soap and started building a lather in the bowl. Holy shedding Batman. Like easily a dozen hairs came out and was in the bowl. Cleared that out and finished building the lather. Have always been pleased with the lather my synthetic makes. The lather with this brush was sub par. Soaped my face up and again like 4 or 5 hairs on my face. Did 3 passes and hairs every time. I dont know if this is normal for badger brushes but I cant see it being normal. The brush also just feels very limp like it has no backbone. I understand badgers are softer and all than synthetics. Definitely not pleased with this brush. At this rate all the hairs will be shed by the 10th shave.
