    Mine arrived today, soaking as we speak....

    Post shave thoughts:

    This brush looks even better in person. Badger and boar funk combined is no picnic. I gave the brush a few rinses and one test lather before my shower to diminish some of the odor. The brush is on the smaller side, the handle isn't very large but it's subatantial and feels good in the hand. This brush definitely has backbone. It's not too dense and has good flow through. The face feel was a bit scrubby but I'm sure it will soften up with use.

    BTW, #76 of 100.

    I updated my last post with some thoughts after my first shave.

    Thanks for the info dannymayo!

    Well, mine is in town at least, at the PO, attempted delivery missed. I really dislike that about Vintage Scent shipping! Price you pay I guess. Hopefully they will redeliver it tomorrow like I told them too. This happens to me every time! Its the so close yet so far having to wait that irks me!

    I'll share when it (eventually) arrives in hand.

    If you actually had one in your hands I believe you would feel different.

    Great looking brush and I believe it will be a soap killer. Received #46 in the mail today.

    I just gave mine it's first outing today. I love it! The handle feels great and looks so nice.

    A winner for sure!

    So, we have 4 guys from B&B outta 100 brushes who snagged one. Who else out there did?

    Mine arrived today (#16). Gave it a quick test lather tonight. I will probably give it a full shave run in a couple of days after a couple of test lathers. First test lather produced very nice lather with no problem.
