Jason...it could happen. I still have a Simpson "Colonel" on order from Lee that I'm anticipating... I use the Polo 8, Duke 3, and Chubby 2 occassionally still, but the little Plisson really surprised me as being a super brush. Scrubby basic grey badger with a great "heft" to the antique brass handle. Supposedly Napoleon used a similar model brush from Plisson.

After 2 days' growth...
