whipped dog 30mm silvertip.any thoughts?

[showle]

I just pulled the trigger on one of these...was wondering what some thoughts on them would be...I have a restore with one of larrys knots, a 24 mm I think...and its a nice brush, But i dont have any "nice" or "high end" brushes yet...

I enjoy by 30mm set at 55mm, it is a great all around brush if not a bit of a lather hog (gotta load longer to get enough product). It can't be beat for the price and depending on your preferred lathering method you can have it customized for cheap.

I have one and like it quite a bit. I went lower on the loft 50/52mm, if I remember correctly, very soft and luxurious feeling with nice backbone.

I'm waiting on a 24mm one still. I look forward to trying it out.

My thoughts on a WD 30 mm. I want one. Maybe in a few months when things settle down on the home front. My wife thinks I have a brush problem.

I bought a 33 mm WD knot and one of their resin handles last week. I drilled it deeper and have it temporarily set with hot glue at 47MM loft . The
knot measures 33 mm diameter. I have only used it once; it felt good, held a lot of soap and certainly was not floppy. I'll try it again in the next couple of days and report back.
I also have a WD 30mm Black knot set at 50.5mm; definitely too short, I'll try it at 53 next.

I admit that I have a brush problem..............................29 is not enough yet. When I reach 1 per day in the month I shall probably set my goal for a yearly rotation.

Mine came in today and I did some test lathers: two with Proraso soap and one with cream. Nice backbone but soft as silk on my face. I finally see what all the fuss about silvetip is about! The resin handle is weighty and chunky. It does take a slight different technique than my boar brushes to lather. A little badger smell but not bad. Overall, a beautiful brush.

And it's a monster! My Omega 10049 works just fine lathering in my little Chinese rice bowl but to paraphrase Chief Brody, "You're gonna need a bigger bowl."

Awesome!! Cant wait to take it for a spin!!

...............47MM loft ..
33 mm diameter. I'll try it again in the next couple of days and report back.

It is superb for face lathering, and very good for the bowl. I think that I will leave it as is, however it would be more attractive with a shorter handle. Once I get my camera back I'll post a picture.

I got my new 30/65 whipped dog brush in today!!! I love it!! It's a gorgeous beast of a brush!!! This has got to be the best bang for my buck that I've spent...at least since the $17 toggle I found on the bay anyway!!! Lol

Ocar that brush is gorgeous. I'm getting one and have asked to have it drilled to 20mm. Do you find that brush to be a little scrubby? Just what resin color is that handle?

I especially like that turtle.
