SOC Boar

[Atlantic59]

I’m not saying Zenith isn’t on my radar. And part of the reason I moved away from Semogue is that I didn’t feel like waiting for a long break in period, not that the process isn’t fun. The Jade has always intrigued me, I just always assumed shipping from UK would be expensive, but it was cheaper than what many US vendors charge.

I'll probably get the Jade at some point. It would replace my Omega 49. I already have the Omega 11137 which is a great medium-size brush, BTW.

The Zenith boar with the olive wood handle is also tempting. Then there is the Mondial...

Wow that the C5 torga boar seems to be much sorter lofted (could be just the angle of photo)... interesting.. price isn't that bad either. Also interesting.
