My current brush is a Vulfix 2234 (http://www.classicshaving.com/catalog/item/800550/422187.htm#image_1)
It is not a bad brush at all, but....
My thoughts as follows: The handle is a decent shape but nothing special - plain jane ivory. I like the flair at the end for "flicking" the brush dry at the end of the shave and not accidently flinging it into the sink with wet hands. I don't know the knot size, but it may well be 22mm as they state. The bloom is nice but not very full, and the hair is a bit raggedy-looking. It holds a so-so amound of water and when wet, the hairs are quite floppy. The brush is very soft on the face and provides probably less than medium scrubbing or feel to it.
So, I am now thinking about the next brush to replace/co-exist with my current. I am thinking along the lines of a somewhat bigger knot size, a fuller head with nice shape, slightly stiffer bristles but not too stiff. Anyone have the 2234 and multiple other brushes that might be able to comment? The budget is the best brush for the value...
Gracias gentlemen.
