Semogue 1305 & 1800 same brush?

Are these brushes the same but with a different finish on the handle?

Correct and the 1250 is the same as the 1800 except the bristles do not have a stripe.

Actually the 1250 has an oak handle, while the 1800 has a beech handle. So they also have different wood handles.

I stand corrected

The important thing here is that Semogue brushes (well boar at least) are excellent. I swear by my 1305 and am blown away by the LE 09 brush I just received. It is like a "chubby" version of the 1305. Super thick knot, but very soft. Great stuff!

Thanks guys, I'm going to pick up the 1800 I think the handle looks better then the 1305.

I agree, the LE is fantastic
