I have been using my custom brush now for a couple of weeks and it would be hard to say all of the great things about this brush. I use it as a bowl brush for TOBS cream and it makes enough lather for many passes with just a peanut size bit of cream. Mantic videos show about a minute to generate lather, not with this brush..about 30 seconds. Great feel on the face, holds lots of water. High on price but you get what you pay for. The size is great, 21 mm knot, 50mm loft. Perhaps i should have bought a bigger handle for ergonomics but it is still just fine. This is a phenomenal brush! Better than my Rooney Heritage, better than my Vulfix Best.
