I absolutely love my Savile row 3824. This brush is amazing. Super soft to the touch and builds lather exceptionally well. I mostly use creams but occasionally use tabac or mwf and this brush handles both with ease. If you don't own a Savile row brush I highly recommend you try one.

Got my 3824 a week or so ago.I could not agree more with your assesment.It won a brush wars contest awhile back and I can see why.I bought a smaller one awhile back that does not get much use.The 3824 deserves the praise it gets
I've had my Savile Row 3324 for a year. Spectacular brush and what a joy to use! Creams and soaps weep. 
It out performs my two Thaters.
I'm currently mulling over the purchase of a new brush and I've been looking at Shavemac, Rooney Hertiage, or M&F. But. . .I keep finding myself on QED's website drooling over another SR.
I wish they'd offer a variety of handle colors. Their handles are great, but all "faux ivory?" COME ON. 
And I don't care for "Natural Horn."

The SR 3824 is indeed a fine brush. When I was bowl lathering exclusively it was superb and effective.
Since switching to face lathering I find myself reaching for smaller knots with a little more backbone - that SR is just a bloomin' beast on the face for me. In no way discounting it's value nor discouraging purchase - and QED are real nice to deal with.

Congrats on the brush and enjoy it.
I've been looking at getting a new badger. How does the 3824, or the 2824 compare with comparable rooneys or simpsons.
Savile Row = Shavemac Silvertip = soft, not very dense, great flow through, enough backbone; softer than any Simpsons I've tried; about as soft as Rooney Silvertip.
I have read nothing but good things about the SR silvertips. I want to get a brush with super soft tips to add to my collection. I am finding I like small knots so I am thinking of getting the 3318, however I cant find much info on it. Seems most people like the bigger knots.
Has anyone used one of the 18 mm knots?

this is another brush (there are a few) that i want to try sooner, rather then later.

Yup. My favorite brush the 3118.
Kool, would you be able to describe the feel of it?

You beat me to it Bruce! Ehem, pics please?
Soft tips, perfect for face lathering which is all I do. Enough backbone to use with soaps or creams. Really the perfect all around brush for me.
Sounds like exactly what I am looking for, thanks for the info.
