How do you like the Pinaud Clubman synthetic?
How many brushes do you have in your rotation?

- Start date
I now have two. I've been using an Omega boar for 10 years and recently bought a Parker silver tip badger to be able to rotate, let one dry completely before using again.
12 Brushes, 3 shelves 4 brushes per shelf, I have room for 2 more brushes on my top 2 shelves
Top shelf Elite Razor, M&F, BradSears, Rooney; 2nd self is all Rudy Vey’s; 3rd shelf Graydog, Spiffo, Omega Premium Jade, Simpson’s Tulip T3 Super

I do like using it primarily for creams at home and face lathering when I travel using a soap stick, or get back to traveling. It took a little getting use to as the loft gives it quite a bit of stiffness. It does build later quickly and well. The size is great as it does fit inside a cardboard toilet paper roll center. Happy I have it.
Lately I’ve been playing with a pair of Simpson brushes that I was gifted for my birthday. Before that I would use a pair of boar brushes from Omega.
More than my earlier reply with another on the way! LOL, what a crazy way to truly enjoy one of my essential daily tasks.

B&B membership has its percs
I've many - mine are arrayed like above, I'm pretty simple, just work through them left to right, top to bottom then repeat .. or buy new brushes from BST & have to sell something, actually one in the picture earlier looks familiar
about 10 that rotate; change to others bi monthly
I have around 14 brushes but mostly use 4 (Black Eagle HT2, Declaration B9a, Mozingo ZT3 and Declaration B10)
That is a really nice and somewhat manageable collection. I have two RV brushes and a number of Simpson brushes as well as the Omega Jade brush. The Omega is my only boar and probably my least favorite. That being said, the Omega is very different from the other brushes and provides a completely different experience. Though a different lathering (I’m a face-latherer), it always provides a good lather and shave. Based on my experience, looking at your collection and the many excellent brushes you have, I would not get rid of the Omega Jade.
Very nice selection of brushesI have 11 brushes in my rotation which leaves room for one more to make a dozen
