Big Brush lovers!

[EdBrice]

I love big brushes so this razorock f-400 was definitely going to end up in the collection!.
It arrived promptly as usual from shaving station (great service) and it is big but still perfectly useable, I face lather 100% of the time, but if you are a bowl fancier you best get yourself a bloody big bowl!!.
It looks great with the bright red handle and jet black hair definitely unusual.
As for performance it has a lot more backbone than the razorock hulk (my favourite brush by far I have two!) .
These large synthetic brushes just lather so well and seem to hold water in them unlike the smaller synthetics,they behave very much like badger brushes without the downsides (like taking 3 days to dry,these are dry within a day)
Over the years I have had several brushes over the £150-200 mark and these larger razorock brushes outperform them in every way all for under £30 each! Good on you razorock!.

I recently acquired this: Razorock 400 in Aluminium

....and I must say not only is it a thing of beauty, it also performs superbly.

They are great aren't they Wayne, I have sold all my badger brushes apart from my simpsons chubby 2, and now have a rotation of 5 razorock synthetics, such good value for money cheers Ed.

Got both the 400 and the F400, both are excellent VFM brushes, comparable to brushes which cost two or three time the price, which seems to be the trend for fair few modern synthetics - and the F400 is great for face or head lathering and you shouldn't run out lather with it either...

 

[Rohleder]

Aye, Razorock are probably the best "bang for the buck" synthetic brushes out there... That F400 looks a bit too big for my taste!

Yeah you certainly won't run out of lather, but I would rather have too much than not enough, there's nothing worse than having to reload halfway through a shave!

 

[wooky114]

It's a cheap but essential part of the shave and like you say Ed, I'd much rather have too much than too little.

30 mm finest badger - wall of lather - fun to use but maybe not my most utilitarian brush

(tested synth vs boar vs badger and they are all equally great for whipping up shave lather but if judged by face feel badger is king in my book)

I'm waiting for these to come back into stock at Shaving Station.

My 30mm original tux along with my 30mm Yaqi tux thats more like a 34nm compared to my original 24mm tux. I've got a big melon of a head so the big brushes do a lovely job covering my face in little or no time. Who knows if they bring out a 40mm I might just try it lol

Razorock brushes are da bomb as in really good.

Wish they would offer some of these handles with Badger knots. To me, once you have one Plissoft, you have enough.

Yes I know what you mean, although I have four Razorock Synthetics they do vary in size slightly but for face lathering they are hard to beat.

 

[Nisse]

switched to a 27,5 mm knot in barber handle thinking the 30 mm knot might be better suited for a chubby style handle.
(anyone with ideas where to buy handles? got a piece of bubinga but not sure I will ever manage to make my own handle)

You terrible chap that will be more £ when shaving station have them back in stock, I'm a sucker for a butterscotch handle.
