Yaqi R210403-B Bali 24MM Silvertip Shaving Brush

Superb brush -- at ANY price point!

The last thing I needed was yet another shaving brush. That being said I saw this Yaqi and had to pull the trigger. Having a few Yaqi brushes already I knew that the quality to value ratio was outstanding! Honestly, I don't think there's a better brush out there for the money. The knot on this is silky smooth (24mm) and builds a wicked lather quickly. I own many brushes of many brands and I've found that the 24mm knot is the sweet spot for me. The handle is gorgeous and very retro looking ... and fits perfectly in the hand. In the hand it feels and looks like a quality brush throughout. It has some weight to it and simply looks great! Yes, there is the initial animal smell but this IS a silver tip badger brush after all. Very little if any shedding thus far. Regardless, I absolutely LOVE this brush and couldn't recommend it enough!
