I use a C&E Best as my regular brush and I'd recommend it. Great first brush for someone or a nice addition to someone's collection.
If I didn't have one already I would definately jump on this one. It appears it may have been discontinued! :shocked003 It's no longer on the C&E website and many are reporting it is darn near impossible to find in stock. Here's the discussion over at B&B: h**p://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=72566 (sorry for the h**p, I can't post links till I hit 5 post apparanetly)
Yes. I just bought one and I can't wait to try it!!! Upgrading from a Omega boar brush is going to rock! E
