I'm thinking Capodimonte for you then; soon it will come in 2 sizes, medium and large (the old size).

: Maybe the Semogue isn't the brush for me then.
: I have the KIN barbershop brush. I
: appreciate that the handle is actually
: aluminum. But I find the bristles very
: thick - almost like lathering with a wet
: whisk broom. I've used it many times, and
: none of those times have I really enjoyed
: it. It's been several months since its last
: use - I think I'll give it a try again.

: Thanks for the great replies, men.
: Andy, the Semogue is not for everyone; it's
: more of a brute force approach to make a
: lathering tool with wonderful old world
: craftsmanship. If you don't like taking a
: brute like this to your face, if you want
: finesse or luxury or ivory, this is not for
: you. It's better than the 48/49 in some ways
: but not as good in others; it's a mixed bag
: if great, great brushes; there are no
: losers.

: GA, I will order this now. You're right.

: Paul, yes, you deserve this brush!
