Show off your pre bloom and bloom badgers

@Rossmeister: That handle is really nice. Simple, but very attractive. How's the grip on it?

Thanks. I loved that handle when I first saw it and I just had to get it The grip and tactile properties are great. The tapered shape makes it really nice.

They come in a few different woods as well, check it out.

I humbly submit my new Simpson Colonel X2L. It came to me in yestrday's mail, soaked all night, and dried all day. Since this is my first badger, I wonder should I expect any further blooming from this brush. Or is it mostly going to rock and roll like this from here on out? It seems to have bloomed out quite nicely.
