A New Synthetic

[huck1680]

Gentlemen
I was looking through your BST forum a while ago and saw one of the members had an AP synthetic brush for sale. I thought it was a good looking brush so I went on the AP website and saw it's a customizable brush as far as colour combos and knot size/type. It's also Canadian which works as I live there as well.
So I got the red/black handle with a 24 mm SilkSmoke knot. Test drove it today with a cream soap and lathering bowl. Well...it spun up a very nice lather and is extremely comfortable to use. Very soft with a decent backbone. Will try a hard soap next time out to see if that works as well as their cream/lather bowl combination.
Cheers

It should do. I use synths exclusively these days. I have never had a problem with Soap of any kind,I would never go back to Badger.

Nice brush. I’m a big fan of AP Shave as the service is second to none and they have the best range of synthetics around with the best rep.

I agree with the post before. Got one and it has become my favourite.
