    Thanks for your input. I have several synthetic as well and they do a great job but I feel this handle needs a natural knot. I'll check the Maggards 70/30 knot. I was thinking Andrew @Linuxguile has tried that one but I may be wrong.

    Well, I knew you said you weren't...see what you think. Doc Ezlovan uses the "s" word in the description of it, and I used it in my review. Good kuck :).

    Yeah, Andrew has one. I believe his started out as a shedder. Not sure if it has settled or not.

    Those things last forever if you dry them after every use!

    Well now I'm not so worried. You're offsetting what @Terry is using up.

    Thank you Jim. I’m trying to narrow my choice down. How does Barbiere Sofisticato compare in scent to B&M Seville?

    To my nose Seville is more citrus forward. Barbiere Sofisticato does have citrus notes but they are blended with the other scent notes as not to be as forward. Be aware, Barbiere Sofisticato does have a powdery note to it. Not over the top but it is there.

    I think the Maggard 2 band SHD fan is a beautiful knot. I have a 24mm and the 26mm.
    The very nice gel tips are amazing 20190224_105024.jpg 20190218_112013.jpg

    Thanks but we need to contact the moderator and have that brush banned from TSD. It is just too gorgeous.
