A little Post-Bloom if you will:
Found 1 shed hair during inaugural lather. Sadly it came from my head and not the brush.

Oh my, that is very nice. That does not help my Simpsons AD at all.

Congratulations, that's a great looking brush.

Very nice! I have one on the way as well. I am really looking forward to it. Beautiful brush!

Gratuitous eye candy.

Four left in that run, Phil @ BG has one somewhere over the Atlantic.

If I win the lottery, I'm moving to the Isle of Man so I can just walk in and pick one off the shelf.

Johnny,

I opened up the factory on our week off for a guy off the TSR (English based wetshaving forum). He was on the Island for TT week - motorcycling festival.

I swear his jaw dropped to the floor, proper kid in a sweetshop face.

Couldn't help himself - wanted everything!!!

Mark :

have you ever heard about the Spanish pirates?

Going to the Isle of Mann sounds brilliant to me...

Beautiful handle,no doubt about it.

A Time-share at the least

Absolutely beautiful brush, thanks for sharing!

The M7 handle, IMO combines the best elements of the Tulip and Emperor shapes. It's comfortable, functional and aesthetically stunning.

I have the M7 in 2 band and both the light and dark GYLE. As much as I'd love to, I don't think I can add a Manchurian M7 to the stable...

But your photos are definitely making me question it...

Must.. resist SBAD! Gorgeous brush.

Gorgeous brush! I love the M7. So the big question is what are your impressions of the magical Manchurian hair?? How does she feel in comparison to the 2 band and Best Simpsons you own?

Will report back soon after first shave.

Now I know you do tours I may well plan a surprise weekend away for the the other half.

Well, we are just about to turn ground on the construction of a new purpose built factory for our headquarters.

All being well, we will be in early 2013 and factory visits will be most welcome.

In fact, I'm thinking a tour "take your brush through production" would be a cool idea, if a little unpractical.

Mark

PS - The Isle of Man is worth the visit alone.

Now that is a piece of functional art!

Very beautiful!

fantastic brush. is the hair quality unique or is it just a trick to sell more?

The quality of the manchurian badger hair is unique. I own two Simpson brushes with the manchurian badger and they are different than the other Simpson brushes in my den. They provide a hint of scruffiness with a soft feeling different from the silvertip. They both offer very good flow through and backbone. A superb grade of badger.

Beautiful brush can't wait to hear how it runs.

All this talk makes me think there needs to be a Simpsons Tourist Trophy special brush.

I have the Gary Young M7 LE with the finest silvertip, it's quickly turning in to my favourite brush, I must also give Mark and Simpson a little mention Mark and I spoke several times over the phone and i cannot praise the company and their customer service highly enough, for me they are the bench mark of any brush manufacturer to be found today.
