    My favorite would be either a Chubby 2 synthetic, or a Duke 3. It would be really hard for me to pick between the two.

    Following very closely would be a Tuxedo knot in a 400 handle that @Jayaruh made for me. It is a great knot in one of my favorite handles.

    Here's a pic of the synthetics I like (except the middle one, which is badger). All are wolf Whiskers handles.

    Wolf Wiskers does make some very pretty and unique handles. All your brushes look great. I love modern synthetic knots placed in a nice handle.

    Happy Shaves,

    I have noticed that I pretty much prefer modern Everything in wet shaving...except razors, which I enjoy about 50% modern and 50% vintage

    WP_20170515_002.jpg WD Black/white synthetic. The only synthetic I have. Sort of on a bias level right now. Works great though!

    My RAD has really quieted down the last few months, but I will be always be watching for new Simpson Synthetic models.

    Right now my favorite is my JR#168 with the new 26mm Black & White Maggard synthetic. It is a very nice knot. I just put the 30mm version of this knot in my new JR#170. I haven't used it yet. It is a big knot.

    I'm very much interested in getting myself a Stirling synthetic. Perhaps another 26mm like the Plissoft I have.

    I have two Razo Rock synthetic plissoft brushes. I use the Italian handle one the most. The other has a shorter black handle and I use it for travel.
