I recently placed an Order with Wolf Whiskers For a new Brush. I had received an Omega Boar brush in a sampler pack and just luck of the draw, got a brush that is continually shedding large numbers of hairs and even starting to thin a smidge in some places now. So, I looked to Wolf Whiskers for a replacement. My Brother had recently ordered from him and referred me as I told him I was looking for something high end, with top-notch craftsmanship. I didn't want to spend less money now, only to wind up in the same situation later.
I saw a thread with one of his last brushes for sale prior to his deployment on B&B so I messaged him. When discussing the brush, he also told me about two slightly used brushes. So, what did I do? I bought the two used brushes instead of the new one I had originally set out to look for. Lol. Makes perfect sense, right? Anyway, I simply couldn't pass up the deal, these things just looked beautiful, and I was able to justify it to myself by saying I obviously needed one Badger and one Boar... right?! The ordering was actually fun. Peter was amazingly helpful, very responsive and just a great guy to talk with about this new hobby of mine. I placed the order and he shipped as soon possible. I received the package exactly 7 days after he shipped it to my APO, and from his location to Spain, that's pretty amazing.
When I got the package I ripped into it excited as could be, only to find that he threw in a massive stash of samples and freebies. Pre-shave, multiple shaving soaps, shaving cream, cologne, face food, after shave balm and multiple blade packs. I weighed the freebies on my very scientific scale and it came out to a solid metric crap ton. This was just insanely generous and I'm immensely grateful. Out of every single sample he provided, being a noob, I hadn't tried any of it except for the Feathers and they're now my favorite! Everyone knows samples are great to have at any time, but are immensely helpful when just starting out. So, from one Brother in Arms to another, thank you very much.
Now, the brushes. There's really just nothing to dislike and it's hard to summarize these brushes in terms that grant them the adoration they deserve. The one thing that stuck out to me when I started holding them and checking them out is that I just did not know what I was missing before. The hair on the brushes are just full and plentiful, ample and soft. The handles are exquisite pieces of art. Apart from the attention to aesthetics that obviously went into them, they just fit your hand like it's intuitive. I used the Buckeye Burl Badger brush this morning with my RazoRock XX. The brush just felt so good on my face working that lather in and it whipped up a nice foam as quick as could be. I Can't wait to try the badger tomorrow with my dragons blood soap.
Without further ado;
Buckeye Burl Badger Brush. 61mm tall, loft 48mm. Finest F2 two band 22mm knot.
Purple Boar Brush. 56mm tall, 38mm base diameter, 24mm boar know. Loft @50mm.
Bottom line, I will make a reason to purchase multiple brushes from him again. If you haven't tried a brush of this caliber before, you simply won't understand what you're missing until you do. Talking to him today he said he's not making any more brushes before his deployment and only has a few left. I'm so grateful that I jumped on these while I still had the opportunity.
