I was really hoping someone else would explain this. The reason you don't hear a lot of talk about tiny brushes is the preponderance of manly men on this forum.
Where have all the Tiny Brush lovers gone?

I just find them too small and uncomfortable to hold while face-lathering. Unfortunately, now, since I have acclimated myself to using larger brushes (32-36mm), I just can't go back to those tiny ones, and I do not consider myself a manly man. 
They really are not practical for shaving legs and such. I just collect them because they are so adorable.

Come on! 36mm????I just find them too small and uncomfortable to hold while face-lathering. Unfortunately, now, since I have acclimated myself to using larger brushes (32-36mm), I just can't go back to those tiny ones, and I do not consider myself a manly man.
You shave yourself with a broom or what?!
I used my Edwin Jagger Best Badger with faux ivory handle today for the first time in a very long time. It is the same size as my first brush, an Art of Shaving travel brush in pure badger. I now know why I don’t reach for it anymore. It’s just too small. It’s also pretty scritchy too but I have other bigger brushes that are scritchy but I use them. After almost 2 years of experimenting with brushes I find I like medium to large size brushes. But a brush can also be too big for me. I’ve never used it but the RR Hulk just doesn’t tempt me at all. I have a Monster and that is about as big as I want. But this is just me. If my son wants a badger he’s welcome to have either the EJ or the AoS.
My favored size is 21-22mm. Kind of a tweener. Easier to keep lather out of my ears!
LoL
Well I got hair growing out of my ears, so some lather there wouldn’t hurt
I almost forgot about this little shaving kit I keep around in case the squirrels want to join me for a shave...

My smallest brush is fairly tiny
It's a Synthetic Silvertip that cost me less than €6 om eBay with free shipping from China to Spain
It fits in the palm of my hand, but I took a pic of the brush with a 100g Tabac Original Stick for scale

That's brilliant Dave, thank you. 
BTW, that would look great posted in the TBOC thread, just sayin'.

22mm M&F Barrel (center). Small knot and easily the smallest handle I have.
Just had a great shave with my Czech SPOKAR...
My smallest brush (16mm TGN Boar Ever-Ready 200cc) next to my largest brush (30mm Maggard SHD Fan Rubberset 200-5).

Which of the two do you prefer shaving with (and why) JM? 
I like my brushes like I like my women, a pleasantly plump handful. I won’t finish the rest. [emoji41]
