Zenith boar. Lots of loft, plenty of flop. With enough splay it covers most of my cheek!

I believe Super Thins are manufactured at three different locations. All three tucks have different labeling. B&B has a thread referencing the subject. To me there is a huge difference in comfort with at least two of the sources. Todays blade I believe is from Thailand. The terrible (to me) blades are from Vietnam.
