It seems that pure badgers get only hate and contempt everywhere. Currently my only badger is a pure. This one . Although i paid it 18 EUR. I really like it! At first i found it annoyingly prickly, but now i don't think about it and use painting strokes. I am also in disbelief on how much backbone it has.
There are many cheap chinese badgers that advertize themselves with a photo where the brush is completely splayed all the way to the knot while dry. With the Edwin Jagger i have, this is impossible. It's more like a boar. And i like that! I like boars! A brush that while dry can splay all the way, will probably be a mop once wet!
The brush i think is also very dense, it lathers easily and holds a large amount of lather, despite the 20mm knot. I 'd dare say it holds more lather than my 24mm Omega boar, with the difference, that it seems that the boar is more prone in releasing the "last" lather down in the knot. Plus, the handle is superheavy and very pretty. I don't think i will ever stop using this brush, despite the 2 Best badgers i have on order! Prickly or not! It's like a badger-boar hybrid!
Anyone else likes pure badger?
