    I'm confused. :confused: The BK4 is a small/travel sized brush, BK2 is is medium sized, BK8 is large, and the BK12 is king sized? :think002

    Are these brushes better for soaps or creams? Scrubby/stiff or soft?

    TIA

    Hi Jim,

    Michael could probably provide a better answer, the BK2 is a little smaller than the BK4....the smaller brushes have smaller numbers...

    There is a description available under the picture of each brush....see here:
    http://www.kentbrushes.com/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=52&cat=Shaving+brushes

    Hope that helps...from what I've heard...the smaller brushes ( Bk2 & Bk4 ) work well with creams and soaps and are on the soft luxury side of things...the larger brushes may be better suited for creams but I am not sure.....I have never tried a Kent yet.

    I use a BK12 with creams, glycerin soaps, hard-milled soaps, shave sticks, and any combination. LOVE it! Holds enough lather for a regiment. Soft on the face, effortless to make lather. :happy108
    Well, maybe I'm a little prejudiced, just because it's my favorite brush.:rolleyes: YMMV.

    This is a fantastic deal. Thanks to all those involved. If the BLK 2 or BLK 4 come out before the end of the year, I will definitely get one or the other. I have an ivory BK4 and it is a great brush. I am starting to lean towards the smaller brushes so I don't think I would go larger than a BLK 2 or BLK 4.

    Smart aleck! :D
    I'm sure a lot of us will wait a bit to see if the BLK comes out, if not, there will be a flurry of activity before the coupon expires. :D

    I'd want to buy a Kent brush but 22mm is too small and 27mm is too big. They really should make an intermediary brush in the 23-25mm range.

    What he said. Applies to the BK4 and 8 as well, just not quite a regiment! Soaps, creams, whatever.

    Buy the 4. Personally, I find it just about the perfect size. You want a 23 instead of a 22? Think about how big a millimeter is! If you don't like it, while I can't imagine that, somehow I think you could manage to sell it around here. :D

    Don't forget the Christmas rush though. I was considering a BK2 a while back and they were out of stock for what seemed like forever!!

    FWIW, I sent Vanessa a note last night and asked, since no one seems to know when the BLKs will be available, if it might be possible to make them available only to TSD members prior to general availability. Probably a pipe dream, but you never know.

    Personally, I have a BK4 and a BLK4 (plus the BK8) and I prefer the ivory. Kents are SUPPOSED to be ivory!

    I should've said 24-25mm. I sold the only 23mm brush I had because it was too small for me. I'm sure at 22mm it's a great brush but I've always liked the 24-25mm sizes.

    Can't make the coupon code work....

    I tried all day long to no avail. ???

    Yeah, well...we seem to have a problem here. After all this buildup, I tried the code this morning and it did NOT work. So, of course, I sent Vanessa a note before I went to work. I asked her when the BLKs would be available and what happed with our discount code. Oh, and I told her that Joe had asked how our honeymoon was. ;)

    When I got home, this was waiting for me...

    Hi Michael,

    We do have stocks [of the BLKs] but we are waiting for the photos to be done and then passed over to the Web Site people to put on.

    This should be done by Mid November.

    [Re the non-working discount code] I will pass on to the the person who informed me that it would be done for them to check out with the web site company. [SIZE=-0][SIZE=-0]I think that the discount code will only work for the Black Shavers, so that could be why it is not working?

    [/SIZE][/SIZE]I think I missed the honeymoon? [Obviously, I made quite an impression! :ashamed001 :rofl]

    Kind regards
    Vanessa


    Naturally, I couldn't let it go at that, so I wrote yet again...

    My dear Vanessa - Now that’s just not fair!! We have a discount coupon that works only for an item that’s not yet available?! Please tell me this is just a mixup and that it will soon be working for all Kent products (or at least all brushes)! We would all really appreciate it! Actually, if you’re sending me my BK2 for my birthday (or as a wedding present), it won’t matter to me! :D

    So...stay tuned. Or buy a Simpson!!
