Just arrived. The box looks like it was stepped on a dozen times but at least the brush is ok.

Yes. Malice is not an attribute of inanimate objects.

Ahh.. obviously you aren't in the IT field.

Lather it nightly with any shave soap. Let the soap sit on it and dry every night this week. It will speed up your break in process. Don't judge that brush until you've used it 30 times. I think you'll like it.

Thanks for the tip. I'm using a 10005 Omega boar bristle now and I love it

I like OK-GO.

Made in Holland, coming by way of France.

Nice! Looks like NOS?

That is what was advertised

I wouldn’t doubt that for a second

Good buy. I love my Omega Boar.

Just saw this....awesomelicious!!

I'm falling in love with boar bristle brushes . Lol Hope that doesn't sound strange.

No to me. You might want to try a horse brush also.

Where would be a good place to look for one ?

I usually pick mine up at the feed store.

Sadly the feed store here only carries feed , I live in a one horse town. ... 3 if you count the 2 foals

heheh.

Anyway, I believe that victoriasheng, and ganvillage_green both have horsehair shaving brushes on ebay.

Make sure they've been sterilized.

There are several places that sell the Vie-long horse brushes.
BullGoose and maggards to name a few. My favorite is the 12705. Maggards has it at a good price I think.
