I recently got this brush from Larry Andreassen, Whipped Dog Straights. It is a 22mm silvertip in a resin handle. It is my first good brush and I really like it...
I am waiting on the delivery of a Semogue 830.
I also recently won a Rod Neep Lions Head silvertip which is also in transit.
I am looking forward to trying these two new brushes out when they arrive. I also have a couple of old handles that I want to restore, can we say SBAD. Yes we can!

I really love my Plisson size 12 entry level (i.e., pure badger) so I want a HMW at some point.
Whether the budget committee will approve the expenditure is another question of course!

Finally broke down and ordered a Da Vinci Uomo globe.....
I just couldn't take it any longer.
Been pondering this buy for WAY too long
Besides.... I haven't bought a new brush in ages... I mean it has been like almost 3 weeks since I bought a brush. That's like ages isn't it?

I really would like to try a flat top...looking at a Shavemac or Thater.
I have a restored Ever-Ready (green/black) with a Whipped Dog 22mm Silvertip knot on it's way, via the B/S/T. First brush purchase in almost 2 years.

Ok guys, I received the brush, sent it back to Plisson the next, the European White was not white, but more of greyish color, and density quite low. I discussed with another Reseller (because plisson never answered any of my questions) and he told me that the size 10 currently available is really not the one to buy if you want a EW today, better select the size 12, better density, whiter hair and two band... So maybe I'll take one from the reseller which was really nice, but never again directly from plisson. To be completely fair with plisson, they did refund the full amount with shipping, without a question. My weakness is that I love the ew antique!... In the meantime, i got a davinci 293 a few days ago, and i am waiting for a shavemac d01 2band, ordered yesterday, already shipped!
I think I'll try a horsehair. The Vie-Long Peleon.
