hunnymonster said:Silly question sonny - how are you holding the brush?
Perversely I find it works better for transfer purposes if I hold the base of the knot with my fingers around the handle (so the handle is in the palm of my hand) - I'm also not averse to squeezing the lather out on to my fingers and putting it on like icing on a cake :lol:
As for the Vintage G= / New Merkur question - that's for other people - but I've never felt the need to use anything other than a Vintage G= (or Schick)

Every chance I'd have thought, although some species of ebony are now under embargo. If it's jet black it will probably be African; if it has brown or greenish streaks it is more likely to be from Asia. If it has open pores it might be African Blackwood, which is the preferred material for good quality clarinets etc.
