Parker Boar Bristle Shave Brush, Rosewood Handle, RWBO

Fantastic brush!- feels good in the hand and doesn't shed like my past brush. I highly recommend this for the shaving enthusiast who expects quality in your shaving tools.

This is exactly the kind of shaving brush I have been looking for. For me, boar hair brushes are the best because they lather up so well and give your face that invigorating work-over that lets it know it's in for a real shave. This brush is very stiff and thickly packed with bristles and it produces lots of lather; nevertheless, I find it very comfortable to shave with. It is also a high quality brush, which is very often not the case if you intentionally buy boar brushes. For some reason the wet shave world seems to be under the delusion that quality means badger. For the committed boar brush man, badger is everything you don't want a brush to be: limp and soppy - and nothing connected with this drippy, flaccid shaving experience can be called invigorating or in any way capable of preparing you to face the rigors of the day. Three cheers to Parker for giving us a well-made boar brush that's everything a shaving brush should be.
