SmallBeard said:I have the SOC boar in cherry, and it's a good brush. It face lathers well too. I personally prefer the Omega knots to Semogue ones, but if your heart is set on a Semogue then I think the boar could a good choice, if you like boars already.
However, all I've heard is how excellent the mixed knot is, so if you want to spend a little more money then go for it
Not a fan of boars, Helveticum? :icon_razz:

I've tried them all, very patiently. Not worth the effort. I can get 10x more lather in 10x less time with a synthetic. Or a good silvertip (well, almost). Yeah, that includes hard soaps and face lathering.
P.S. If anyone wants to prove their point, we can arrange a video challenge - your boar against my synth :icon_rolleyes:

What are you using currently, as I saw you put your 23mm Muehle up in the BST?
Sorry to derail the thread OP!

Well, I've got a 25mm Muehle with a custom handle (made by Daz), and planning to get a 23mm one with a posh handle as well. So it's Muehle V2 all the way for me.
