Because everybody, especially new B&B members, should have more than one shaving brush...
I'm giving away the five brushes you see below. To receive one of the brushes, you must:
(a) be a member who joined since December 15, 2016;
(b) have introduced yourself in the Hall of Fame before today (January 18); and
(c) own only one shaving brush.
This PIF is open to all B&B members who meet those 3 criteria, anywhere in the world.
If you meet the criteria and would like one of these brushes, please post saying you're in and what one brush you currently own.
If there are more than 5 people in, I will use random.org on the morning of Sunday, January 22 to select 5 people to receive the brushes. I will then look at what brushes they already have and try to match them up with something different. I will post the names here and PM the recipients to get mailing addresses. I would like to ship them all at the same time on Monday, so if you are in, please check your PM's Sunday evening.
The five brushes (all of which have been cleaned and sterilized) are, from left to right:
1. Aluminum handle, synthetic knot. Chinese. Used 3 times while traveling. Very soft and well-made.
2. Wooden handle, synthetic Plisson knot. Very nice brush assembled by another member here.
3. EverReady C40, vintage brush with (I think) boar hair. I bought it NOS and have used it twice. Great little brush.
4. EverReady 100, vintage handle with new (used 5 times) finest badger knot from The Golden Nib.
5. Semogue 620 boar brush, used maybe 20-25 times. Almost broken in now, but not quite.

By the way, I don't know anything at all about the others. I have no doubt that they are great and I'd be very glad to experiment with any of them and post a detailed comparison vs. the Razorock from a newbie's perspective.
