Got a new brush!

I just bought, and recieved, an Onxy handled pure Badger from the Shave Shack as my new every day brush.

The handle is much longer and the knot fatter than I had expected, but the tips are gentle.
Just wipped up a lather with Tabac soap (without shaving as I'm going to Trumpers tomorrow, yay), works great.
Is a bit wet dog smelling which is the first time I have encountered this with a brush, but I'm sure it will go.

I recently bought a Semogue badger & it had a bit of a funk on it. I soaked it for 5 mins in hot water & then lathered up 3 times with it, let it dry & repeat two more times. The funk was almost gone. A couple of shaves later it was.

I have no idea what it is. It smelt a bit like moth gonads to me.
 
I have made 4 lathers with it and it's great with soaps and creams, the smell is all but gone now too.

I scraped off the shack writing on it with the edge of a coin, left the 'pure badger made in england' on the opposite side. It is going to be a great everyday brush.
