Shaving brush quality

[Haynie]

Are the brushes in the shaving kits of decent quality?

 

[Dan Masshardt]

There are different quality levels available.

The only kit I have seen is at CSUSA. They say premium badger but premium is not a brush grade. Where else are the brush kits sold?

I bought a CSUSA brush. No where near as soft as the 50 year old one I use.

I used to buy antique brushes and restore them before I started turning, and would go through Golden Nib to get the knots. They have many different grades and sizes to choose from and the quality is much better than what I've received from a few of the pen sites.

Thank you for the golden nib link. Exactly what I was looking for.
