Hello all,
My father's birthday is coming up, and I'd like to get him a new shaving brush. I think he's partial to Rooneys, but he knows them mostly by reputation; as far as I know, he's never owned a Rooney. I'd welcome input from anyone who can recommend a good brush. He prefers badger to boar and soaps to creams. He's currently using a cheap Tweezerman badger brush which I gave him when I reintroduced him to wetshaving a few years ago (my father is turning 88 and has been shaving for about 75 years). I'd like to spend no more than $60, and am currently thinking of getting him a Rooney pure badger brush from Classic Shaving (here's a link to their page for this brush: http://www.classicshaving.com/catalog/item/2053630/2184471.htm). It doesn't necessarily have to be a Rooney, so if you know of a brush that's as good or better in the same price range, I'm all ears.
Thanks,
Mike
