Here it is, the tournament we've all been waiting for! It's the time of year where many come with the hopes of winning but only one will go home with a trophy.
The players in this game are back row, left to right:
Brad Sears G3/30 - Romera 2nd Anniversary Buffalo Horn - Brad Sears Beehive - Romera Biscop
Front row, left to right:
Simpson M7 - Simpson Duke 3 - Simfix Pearl - Zenith 506A - Shavemac #944 D01 2-band (not Manchurian by name, but gets compared frequently)
The rules are simple, I will randomly choose and use each brush for one shave over the next nine days. I will take notes on my experience each shave and come back here to update the thread. At the end I will select my favorites and seed them in a "Final Four" and then ultimately try to pick a winner. Along the way hopefully I can shed some light on some similarities and differences in these brushes. I am going to do my best to not have any preconceptions on what a Manchurian brush actually is, instead just do my best to put the experience into words and give an honest unbiased opinion. All of these brushes were purchased by me, with my money and I have no personal relationships with any manufacturer or artisan outside of the actual purchasing process. Questions and comments are welcomed throughout the process.
It's Manch(urian) Madness!
