PLEASE ARCHIVE: Shaving Brushes

Recently purchased a couple synthetic shaving brushes. I've gone a bit overboard, and need to sell. All brushes are brand new/unused. Each brush comes with a choice of freebie:


1. Grooming Company Shaving Brush "Baby Blue" (Brand new/unused) - TRADED
- 25mm knot
- 50mm height
- This has the same knot as a Plisson Synthetic
- The knot isn't set straight as you can tell by the pictures
- Comes with all original packaging


2. Vie-Long Beehive Silvertip Fibre "Faux Horn" Shaving Brush (Brand new/unused) - TRADED
- 24mm knot
- 54mm height
- The handle is superb at 55mm height, very comfortable in hand
- Comes with all original packaging

How does the Vie Long compare to the Muhle/EJ Sivertip Fibre L? Is it more dense?

It's more dense than the Muhle and probably equal to the EJ Silvertip. At least that's how it appears.

I really like the look of the Vie Long. GLWTS.

I have all three and the Simpson Chubby 2 Synthetic and the Vie-Long feels a little denser than EJ and Muhle, maybe equal or just tad less than chubby.

That Vie-Long looks great! Have to restrain myself

Would you consider a trade on the Vie Long brush?

I have a NOS 1912 GEM Jr.

I am not interested in the Gem Jr, but I'd consider a trade for an iKon 101 razor or a Plisson Synthetic brush or a Tradere handle

Ok, thanks!
