I may have a problem. I only started wet shaving a month ago. Here are my vintage brushes so far. These 4 are waiting for re-knots. The rubberset 400 will get a TGN boar. The others are all 20 mm or so holes. The red and white ever ready had very worn lettering so I just sanded it out and am thinking about getting a round monogram laser engraved, that one could be reamed for a larger knot, I suppose. The black and aluminum and the black and butterscotch will need something right at 20mm. I was thinking about trying an ebay special with a pair of knots for the red/white and butterscotch/black. I am still thinking about a TGN synthetic for the black/aluminum, just to try one.
These are my "I Love You Just the Way you Are" collection. I have cleaned and in some cases sanded/polished them, the Klenzo Black and White is a nice solid handle, I repainted the lettering and it looks so good--it probably deserves a new knot, but for now these ones are all rocking their vintage knots which I have used and each one performs adequately. The two on the left are Badger Ever-ready. The others are boar except the one marble painted one may be synthetic, it is very scrubby, but the marbling is wearing off. These will mainly be for display.
