vie long super premium silvertip 16516 24mm knot with 53mm loft (paid $135) and paid $13 for the cade soap a week or two ago...bought a bunch. brush is super nice, the logo is fading...but it was fading when i bought it new as well. this brush doesnt get much use from me so i figured i'd offer it up for sale. Cade soap is sold. if you want the brush...$75 shipped.
