I recently sold off four beautiful brushes to make room for four more beautiful brushes. Introducing a Paladin PK-47 26mm Lemon Drop, a Simpson Duke 3 Manchurian, a Simpson Chubby 1 Best and last, but not least, a Rudy Vey AS3M Dark Knight/D01 3 Band. My first Simpson and Paladin purchases and another RV for my den.

Couldn't resist after trawling for anew brush. It's been closer to 2 years since my last brush purchase, that was my Yaqi synth in moka. So good it just stopped all brush purchases.

Any how a Simpson T3 trafalgar is on route to me curtesy of a small amount left in PayPal, actual price a few quid.

Took a punt on a Vulfix 660 synthetic. I can only find one pic of it online, 2 vendors selling them, and absolutely no reviews or even mention of them on shaving Forums. So a punt. It should arrive in a few days.

Please keep us informed. I’d like to know about it. I just purchased a 660S super badger.
 
That's lovely.
Thank you, Tim. :001_smile
Did you order directly from Shavemac?
Yes, but it was a custom order as Olive Wood isn't on their configurator.
If so, how long did the order take under the current Covid conditions?
From Shavemac sending it from Germany to me receiving it in the UK took five days. That's just as good, or better, than non-pandemic times. On saying that, I received a parcel from Spain today which took 20 days.
 
Still in the break-in phase, with four shaves in, for this newly acquired Robert Quinn/Elite Razor 26mm Black Ash Burl with three-band High Mt. White bulb knot:
