Simpson Classic 2

An essential and vital component for a respectable wet shave,


this Simpson badger shaving brush is amazing.



Will update with some after bloom shots , but after 2 shaves with it all I can say is
that I am tickled pink with this delightful brush.

This is one on my 'to get' list.

It looks really nice. Look forward to seeing the bloom shots.

Congratulations on a fine acquisition.

I crave this one:

Manchurian Classic 1 with case. The ultimate travel companion!

I too need to add this to my acquisition list, looking forward to the after use pics.

Only 2 shaves into this brush ,

it slices
it dices
it even phones Mum and lets her know when I'll be home late for dinner

Ben, with a loft of only 43mm, the Classic 2 brush in Best may be better than the Manchurian badger, most certainly on cost but also perhaps on performance.

The Classic 2 is the logical choice and without doubt the soundest decision economically speaking. But the Manchurian would be my ultimate travel brush.

I can only say that I need one of those....
How are the tips and the backbone?

I think the Classic could be named Chubby Zero, too. It's pretty much the same like a slightly shrinked Chubby.

I have a Chubby 1. Is it worth to buying a Classic 2?
I like the handle of the Classic 2

I have a Classic 1 , have tried a Chubby 1 , and Im looking forward to add a Classic 2 to my collection.I found the Classic 1 in best badger better than the Chubby 1 in super badger.

Thank you, Teiste!

My Classic 2 has been sent out today.
I ordered it in Germany and think that I will get it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
....Come to daddy....

I find my Classic 2 in best somewhere between the Duke 2 and the Chubby 2 (both in best) except that it isn't, like the Chubby, a lather hog. I love the handle, too. A real 'classic' I suppose.

Odd, really, calling a badger hair brush a 'hog'. I hate to be a boar

Here it is

Similar, but different to the Chubby 1.
I am curious about the first use. I love the handle.
