Boar & Badger with Matching Handles

[Nanker/Phelge]

Hey Guys,

Does anyone have a tip on where to find one of each with the exact same handle? The obvious choice would be to buy the handles and add knots to them but I'm looking for pre-produced solutions. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

These are great brushes.

Semogue and Omega should have the same handle on a boar and badger knot

A big +1 on the Semogues!

The Semogue Limited Edition 2011 have beautiful matching black handles and they are fantastic brushes.

Thanks for the quick responses. Are the Semoque Owner's Club brushes worth the premium?

Any additional suggestions for ones with metal handles?

If you buy them from vintagescent, they're quite reasonable.

Semogues worth exceed the price. I would say a best buy" and agreat value especially through VintageScent in Portugal.

IMHO, Semogue offers a great product at a very reasonable price.

If you buy them from vintagescent, they're quite reasonable.

When you order from vintagescent.com you get the best value for semogue. Frankly, don't expect an elaborate box with all sorts of frills. What you'll get is an incredible brush at the best price on the net. It ships from Portugual so take a few days depending on your location. Highly recommend both vendor and manufacturer. I'm simply a happy customer, who owns both SOC 2band/boar in cherry!

 

[Nanker/Phelge]

What kind of knot size are you looking for?

I'd say 22mm - 24mm with lofts in the 50mm - 58mm range

Yep, SOC. Boar. 2-Band Badger. Review.

I have a Semogue 620



and Thater 49125




Not identical, but look pretty sitting next to each other in my den

 

[Nanker/Phelge]

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll be taking one of each...

If buying from Vintage Scent (seems to be the consensus) how quick is the shipping? And to go with Ash or Cherry finish...hmmmm

This is a damn good idea.

The metal handles may look pretty but are a B*tch to hold when they're wet & slippery.

 

[Rivguy]

I agree that the Semogue 2011 LE Badger/Boar handles are beautiful and perform wonderfully. Semogue and Vintage scent are excellent recommendations. I am not sure what the reference to metal handles is about but I have several Pewter and other metal handles and do not find them to be slippery in the least.

Regards,

Doug

I had Rudy Vey make me a matched set in black buffalo horn.

I've purchased several brushes form Vintage Scent and would say on average that shipping is 7-10 days from Lisbon to Boston. The one variable always in buying overseas is that your package goes through U.S. customs and is subject to being held longer for a more detailed inspection. I've made 4-5 purchases from Vintage scent and never had a shipment take longer than 11 days.
