simmo3801 said:Ok thanks everyone. Certainly food for thought! I really like the look of the 1305 handle which would be a pleasant change to the faux ivory of my other 2 brushes. I find my 404 bodger seems to pick up cream or soap very well but as others have said appears to hold on to some of it more than my finest silvertip. I'm not so sure about wooden handles though especially the Semogue Owners one. Unfortunately to me it looks a little understated. It may just be the photo though. The wood wouldn't be a problem as far as soaking though as I stand brushes upright in a mug with just the bristles soaking.

simmo3801 said:Thanks Ivan, I had read Brunos post so I think I will order a Semogue 1305 as I really like the handle. I generally bowl lather creams which I've now read some people frown upon so I will try face lathering with my 404 mix meantime until the Semogue arrives. It was getting the 404 bodger that got me thinking about boar brushes and when I saw the prices I decided I could afford to try one. I appreciate what Fido has said before in his comparisom of a badger brush being a Lexus and a boar being a Ford Escort. I have owned a number of Fords but couldn't justify the cost of a Lexus! I use a car as a means of getting from A to B. Sometimes whilst towing a horse trailer for SWMBO, carrying a large dog, or filling with bulk feeds / haylage. It works fine for me. I'm lucky enough to own a very good finest silvertip brush but still keen to see what the Fords can do!
