Hi all!

Selling the last two bits of my collection that see more shelf than face time.
Prices include shipping in CONUS only.

1) 5/8 Shumate Ben Hur. I bought it freshly honed and used it 2-3 times. Everything is tight, scales are in great shape. Includes a Whipped Dog strop. $30.

2) Omega 31064 Boar brush. Loft is 59mm and knot is 25mm. I'm a cream guy, and have not used this extensively. It has stopped shedding and the tips have come in nicely. Has a nice amount of backbone, and makes a nice lather with soaps or cream. $15.

$42 if you want to take both.

Is the brush pretty scrubby? Does it have decent backbone despite the 59mm loft? If so, I'll take it.

Backbone is very nice - the brush picks up soap very well. It's "aggressive" as one would expect a boar, by not scratchy or harsh on the face.
