If new models, then you may really be trying to get one of each model offered, huh?
I believe all babies will be different, but one never knows for sure. I understand papa boar and mama boar both have a twin, so I might have to adopt them into the family.

I get my inspiration from "oversaturn".

If staying with wood handles then I'm predicting a 2000, 1800, & 1250 will make it there. If trying acrylic then I'm guessing the 830 may just show up!
You are correct sir and I will be sticking with wood. I understand there are a couple of badger cousins out there, and I may have to bring them into the family, someday.

I really like the SOC brushes best. I would rank/rate them:
1. SOC
2. 1305
3. 1460 & 1470
Uncle Phil is sending me grandpa boar 2000 this afternoon.

Got to post here my Semogue den...! I've not yet posted them on this forum. But those photos need to be updated...
I bow to you sir. If you never bought another brush and gave me two years, I might get close to what you have, in number. But you sir have some beauties they no longer make.

I think you should definitly try one of the SOC Badgers (cherry or ash, according to your taste... or both!). I have one and I find it quite similar (when it comes to backbone and softness of the tips), with my Simpsons Duke 3 (mine has a 24mm knot and 50mm loft).
You can read here a comparison between the SOC 2-band and some Simpson brushes (in Super 2-band and in best) made by a member of the Portuguese forum barbearclassico.com (Konstantinos). Don't worry, it's in English!

No sir. When I got my Omega 10005, it came in the plastic tube with the little plastic stand. Its main use now is my travel brush. As a matter of fact, it will get a workout Saturday morning as we are going down to Madison Friday to spend a couple of days with my youngest grandson.
