Guys / Daniel just an update not too much longer now, yesterday was a good turning day with today and tomorrow finishing mostly all the brushes just got cast some more Ivory blanks, The Butterscotch Pearl got lost in the RM system so had
to re-order the powder which I now have and those blanks have been turned ready for the next turning process, as with the Black and Silver, so nearly done guys.
Regards Mervyn

I have a Kent BK2. This is the only brush I have ever owned and I've had it for many years. I don't shave every day, but I do like like this brush. It's probably past it's best now so time to replace it.

When I looked at the three vintage Kent brushes I have (the three on the left) it struck me that every logo is different.
Is there some "Kent logo sticker historian" out there that can tell if the logos indicate when the brush was made and/or the grade of brush being sold at the time?
