The Butterscotch Semogue Boar is SOMETHING ELSE!

Been a minute since I have had time to post.

Saw the butterscotch Semogue SOC boar brush on Bullgooses site - ordered it and have used it a few times.

This is an exceptional knot, comfortable handle and a crazy good price.

Thought I would share as it impressed me that much!

What an unexpected delight!

I would say the same about the Zenith Brushes.  I own 3 Zenith boar brushes and they seem to be tremendous for face lathering.  The copper handled brush, once it generates a nice patina is excellent.
I do still enjoy my Semogue 1305...great brush And it’s inexpensive!
I did not find any butterscotch Semogue brushes on the Bullgoose website?

I can’t explain it.  I found a single page when I searched “Semogue” and it had no butterscotch.  I tried to go back and find the page I visited and it brought up the page that you provided?  I’ll chock it up to stupidity on my part.  Mea Culpa.

In the style of the Semogue Owners Club it's a beauty to enjoy in use and looks awesome as well.

I always felt the SOC was, arguably, the best boar brush on the market.  Introducing an ivory resin SOC was a great move by Semogue.  Now, we have a butterscotch which is one of the nicest I've seen from any brush maker.  It's just a beautiful boar brush.

It’s just getting better with each use!!! Love this brush!!!

I’ve been looking for my first boar brush. I’ll have to check these out.

Maybe it's me but $44 for a boar brush seems kind of steep.

I have 2 Omega wooden beehive handle boar brushes. They are both great brushes. I think I paid under $10 for each of the Omega brushes. I am sure the Semogue is very nice so YMMV.

Agreed.  I have a 1305 which was $20 and a Zenith which was $16.  Can't see any boar better than those 2.

The B.scotch feels much nicer to me than the 1305 and looks better than my 1305 after I dropped the 1305 and chipped it. LOL

I just placed my order. Love me some boar, love me some butterscotch, useless to resist. Thanks to Phil for getting it done.
