Your most favorite cream brush

[krisbarger]

My soft Soft wall of lather... I am curious as what your favorite brush for creams is. I will say my fav right now is my BK4. I am looking for a bigger soft brush though. Maybe a BK8 or a BK12 will be next. I just wanting to give everybody a sound off here no right or wrong answer.
Lets have it what is your fav right now.

I love my Kent BK8 for bowl lathering,and for face lathering I like my Thater 4292/6,2 band,fan.Both are real soft, the Thater has a bit more backbone,I like it for soaps too.

Another vote for BK8. It's a brush which builds lather in bowl incredibly fast

Cheers!

The 209 is a new brush for me. I've never heard of it. Where did you find this beauty?

See this review I wrote: http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php/297106-Da-Vinci-290-Globe-Handle-Brush-Review

When I bought it there was only 1 US distributor but I believe that there are more outlets for this brush now

for soft creams, my softest, most luxurious brushes do the trick, especially when face lathering.

the SR and Kent are my newest additions, but they are both wonderful:

The SR 3824 on the right...

3824 I have heard great things about! The BK8 is similar to it right? I have thought selling my BK4 and getting a BK8 but this 3824 may tempt me away...

both are wonderful. i find the 3824 to feels smaller and denser. the BK8 is more luxurious, at least in my few shaves with each of them so far.

the 3824 is a more traditional feel, whereas the BK8 is soft and luxurious. many say the BK8 is too floppy, but I think it's an excellent brush and feels like no other brush I own. it's soft and luxurious to the extreme.

each can be had for around the same price, $120 or so (new) and I am fortunate to have picked up both recently.

My favorite for creams are my Vulfix 2233 and my Thäter.

I cannot use my BK8 without the word "luxurious" coming to mind. I'm mostly a soap guy, but when the mood strikes to pull a cream out of the cabinet, the Kent comes with it.

+ 1, Vulfix 2233S when using creams

 

[blzrfn]

Vulfix 2234S (Silvertip) or Trumper IB10 (Best) are both really soft brushes that work magic in the bowl with a nice shave cream.
