Recently received these 2 brushes from AliXpress. DS Cosmetics, Ken Surf, 26mm knot, 58mm loft. Extremely soft and usable straight out of the box. Pretty kaleidoscope effect handle. I do prefer shorter loft and scrubbier so the other brush gets the win. Yaqi, Viper, 24mm knot and 54mm loft. It's cheap and it's damn fine at it all but it's not a painting brush. A couple of excellent and reasonably priced brushes to use while resting my 2 Connaught shaving Omega Ivory and Jade duo.
I read production was ceasing on Tabac soap refill pucks so I thought I better get another. A German classic of legendary status of fantastic qualities.
