Synthetic, synthetic, synthetic! Will admit, I have seen several synthetic brushes that look tempting.
So why not try one? I have a spare handle so let's see what I can do.
So here it is.
An Ever Ready 1000 wearing a shave forge 24mm by 68mm Synthetic Silvertip. Loft is set at about 58mm.
I have had real good luck with the shave forge badger hair knots I use, so nothing to complain about there.
Nice soft tips, seems to have good backbone. One thing I like right away, no funky smell to deal with.
Going to give it a run today and see how I like it. I'm a Badger guy, always have been so this will be a new experience for me!
And honestly, I've been eyeballing a Phoenix shaving brush for a week now, seen the reviews and watched a few videos on it. So if this Ever Ready impresses me I may have to add another synthetic to the rotation.
