So I've been busy reading older threads and picking everyone's brains the last couple of weeks. I'll repeat what I was after:
"For my primary brush I want small & firm (precise; no mops), soft and scritchless (makes me think silvertip) and quickly creates and easily releases lather (enough for just 1-pass + touch-ups)."
And with your help I came up with this:
And here she is (sorry about quality, just pics from my phone):
First impressions:
I gave her a whirl tonight and boy does she dance. Very happy with the handle weight and length. I have to pat myself on the back here as this is an elongated version of their handle w/ nickel only seen on a couple models. Very hard to capture the grain of ebony, even to the naked eye with incandescent lighting the grain detail is very dark. I have to say the backbone of the Shavemac silvertip is just what I wanted. While at work I was worrying about the 22 knot but now that I've used it I think I nailed it. It's great for face lathering, readily released the lather from what I can see, and looks a stunner.
