Gotta agree with you, Fred.

OK guys, I am on the fence, teetering, nearly about to take the plunge, just blow on on me I will fall.
Lee's got a 24x52, this loft is a touch higher than I have come to like, in fact I had to put rubber o ring on my silvertip brushes to stiffen them up. I've never used 2 band hair in any form, so I am curious.
Will this thing disappoint me as far as backbone goes? For me, it's not a cheap thing to buy, I'm not exactly broke but I am in college and paying for it myself, but I appreciate the handmade nature of the brush, and considering we don't have a stateside craftsman producing such items, I am willing to shell out the cash across the pond. I like to scrub, I don't like getting scratched, but I do like to scrub, and it sounds like this brush is the answer. Am I correct? Thanks B&B bros!
Absolutely!Hey Ken, the shape of the handle of that left brush looks very familiar to me...
OK Ken. If I'm not mistaken, these are new pictures you just posted. Are these the most recent additions? The extra special brushes you mentioned? Details, please. And what's the three band hair?

..........OK this is hard, why must I wait. I'm tapping a hole in the floor with my foot and it's been about 4 minutes since I sent my money
These brushes are gorgeous, Ken I like the marbled design of green. And yes it looks like Rooney Finest handle. And also we need information about the grade of the hair. I guess it is not blonde badger. Please enlight us.
Yeah Ken, give us some more information please!! We've been waiting for these.
Fred
Ken, beautiful score. Centerpieces of your collection, no doubt. Poor Lee will now be inundated with requests for Finest brushes, though. I think people should understand these are older brushes he had sitting around from his Rooney days. Please give us a comparison of the Finest vs. Blonde when you have the chance. Maybe a picture of all of them together for some perspective?
What handle material is that green one? I am WeAK and I...Must....ResiSt... AHHHHH!
I love M&F brushes and have seriously considered making M&F my next Brush Aquisition Disorder...I'd like a whole wall dedicated to this finely crafted brush...if only I had been born RICH ...
Exactly!A Peter-esqe wall of them is a great idea!
Ken
Dang! more beautiful brushes. Now I need to figure out a way to pay for one
Two more arrived today! It took them exactly 2 weeks to cross the pond and arrive at my doorstep. So I thought I should include pictures of all four. They are, left to right:
Super silvertip 24x49mm, acrylic handle. I think Lee only made a couple of these. Honestly, I have no idea how much he makes of what. I asked if he had anything other than Blonde Badger, and he showed me this and one other brush. The hair is densely packed and super soft. The logo is a prototype, and I'm sure Lee would like some input. The brush is pre-bloom.
