Are Kents considered better, worse, or the same as the two?
How do Kent brushes compare to Rooney and Shavemac?

I think they're all in the same league. One of my favorite brushes (the LE 2008) was made by Kent.
All are excellent. I used a Rooney for a long time, now using a Kent.
They are all in the upper crust though I would rank kent maybe half a notch below the others but its still a superior brush.
Kent makes a very nice brush, though just a notch under Rooney and Shavemac, depending on what you like. The BK8 has little to no backbone. But it isn't floppy either.
I found my BK4 to be floppy at first, but then it seemed to improve
I'm not able to explain it, and I won't try.
I'd say Saville Row or Rooney would be among the first brushes on my "to buy radar" when I acquire another
I've used my Kent BK4 along with several other brushes I have. The Kent has always been the best. I just received a Rooney style 2 in super silvertip, and now that seems to be my most used.
