Li JUn & 1980 finest badger shaving brush.

This is my new Li Jun & 1980 finest badger shaving brush.After my bad experience with the Frank Shaving brush (best badger) I decided to give another try for a 100% chinese made brush

-Knot:21mm
-Loft:51mm
-Handle Height:54mm
-Total Height:10.5cm



The handle its quiet heavy and sturdy,much better than the Frank Shaving one that I have.Its looks like a Plisson handle:



The hair its not as good as the one used by New Forest (2201) or even the new Semogue finest badger,however its a good quality hair and it seems that its not black badger with bleached tips.



It has a good hair density and to make lather with it its really easy:I have tried with soaps and creams with excellent results.



Is this brush better made than the european ones?Well,NO but its a decent,nice,well made and cheap brush and if you are on a tight budget,could be a great option.



I need to try it more,but so far Im happy with it and for its price,10 euros with shipping,its well worth it.

Great pictures and review Teiste!

the LiJun finest was my 1st badger a year ago. it was from ebay for about $20 shipped and served me well.

they are great little brushes and should not be overlooked. specially for a budget brush.

I have one of those, exactly like this one, and still use it from time to time. It surely holds a place in my rotation. ; }
The price was very good, back when I bought it, some time ago: about €11, including shipping. can't beat that, for a nice badger!

I bought one in white in another forum. Now, i don't know if was finest ou best badger. It's my first badger and i'm very satisfied.

They make the Frank brand and my own. A great brush at any price point.

I think that Delong its behind them too.

It's a really nice brush! Someday I will buy one to try! Probably it will be my first badger brush!

I have a LuJin badger in my rotation and it's decent brush. It was given to me awhile ago.

I like the handle on that brush..

I was considering one of the larger Li Jun or Franks brushes for my daughter for her birthday. Sounds like it would be a decent option.

Very nice brush
No matter if the handle is a copy,many China brand do the same
I have Lijun brushes and i will buy again
Enjoy it and happy lathering !

Well, I had a little better luck with Frank Shaving brushes. I have two. One was sold as a 26mm High Mountain Badger bulb but is very obviously bigger than that, I'd guess 28 or 29mm. It's a black "Chubby" shape handle and it's bigger than my Chubby 2. The other is a faux green jade Persian Jar type with a fan shaped 24mm Finest knot. They both are very good brushes, excellent considering what I paid. I'm very happy with them. As a matter of fact, the only brushes I have that I'm not happy with are the three which I gave synthetics a shot with.

LiJUn & 1980 brand doesn't appear on eBay any more, anyone know what happened to the vendor. I did find a website for the manufacturer, The closest thing to this LiJUn & 1980 Brand I could find is a Liojuny brand being sold at this eBay shop

They look very similar to the Franks brand which I like in the Finest hair brushes. Thanks
