Envy carbon fiber brush

Nathan went above and beyond I.M.O. on these carbon fiber layed brushes. I got a one off from his website but there are other variants at West Coast Shaving

The carbon fiber handles caught my attention and look very nice. Unfortunately, I find that the combination of the fan knot and high loft on the synthetic Envy brushes result in less backbone than I prefer.
 
I did some hand lathers to clean it out and i can see the less back bone. I got this in his black wolf as i have 2 of his alluminati in his various badger knots. Yeah i have 3 Envy, I kind of like that fact that he is 20 some odd miles away and i can support a local in the shaving world
 
+1! For that price I would have another badger, but YMMV! (Love the handle!! :a14::a14:)
Im sure that mostly what youre paying for is the exclusivity of it. Im sure that Envy doesnt make thousands and thousands of those brushes. It really is a beautiful handle though.
