Very nice brushes, and I like that stand! Where did you get it?

A seemingly unused Somerset era Simpson Major in Best.

It is interesting to compare it to my pre WW2 example made at the Simpson factory in London.

Thank you for the kind words. I got this stand from a BST forum, but similar stands are available at Fendrihang

I have a few 29 and 30 mm brushes from The Varlet/Everset and Wiborg, but today was my first time using a CH3. Thanks to @Gerbs for making this available at a good price. (The CH2 in the last photo is not new. It is just in the pic to show how big the 3 is.)

Tatara Muramasa adjustable shaving brush. In collaboration with Semogue, the loft of this brush can be adjusted with the turn of the dial. A perfect companion for the Muramasa adjustable razor. Available in badger or synthetic knot.

Glad you are enjoying it! Great combo. Love your new Varlet. I have been torn that I didn’t grab a Mega for my last custom but ran it back for another Gaslamp.

Nothing wrong with a Gaslamp. I've got one and it is a very nice handle.

Ordered a Duke 3 Manch in butterscotch online at Pasteur's for store pickup but was notified that they didn't have any in stock but to come by to see an LE brush they have that hasn't hit the site yet. Needless to say I chose the LE version and frankly it's the coolest looking brush I've ever seen in my life. Talk about luck. Didn't have to pay any extra.

Old Rubberset 200-3 with what appears to be a boar knot that looks more like human hair

Gonna take a stab at re-knotting. Probably gonna try a G5A. I think it’ll look pretty good in there.

Just have to figure out what size the ferrule diameter opening is.
