This is a Vulfix #2198 Pure Badger that I purchased used and it seems fine when dry. When it's used it explodes as shown.
What do you think?
Thanks.

That's a beautiful thing!

It's supposed to do that. Enjoy!

I concur with Steve's assessment of the brush in the photo!

Thanks!

Perfect !

nothing

You are building some great lather

And you thought something was wrong because.....?

Well I'm not a badger brush guy, but about the only thing I see wrong with that brush is I don't own it.

I am still learning and was looking at it and when I face lather it seems to stay bulb shaped. Most of the time when I bowl lather it bells out a bit but sometimes it ends up looking like a mushroom. Most other brushes look more compact after the bowl lathering process.

Looks good from here!

Yes its terribly defective. You shouldnt use it.



Please pm me and send it to me.

probably dangerous actually...leave it to the pros!!! lol

To be honest it did scritch my hand the last time I used it.

Get it out of that house!!!!!

I will destroy it for you.

Your brush looks to be in top shape!

this thread is funny

Maybe a blown gasket?

I was thinking it might be a ball joint
If something is going to go wrong it's usually in that area.
