Recently purchased this as a replacement for my well used brush. Great product, good feel, dense bristles and good lathering performance. Thoroughly recommended.

I've always been an economiser, and the only reason I used a £2 brush is that I couldn't find one for £1. Recently I decided to start spending money because I can't take it with me.
I invested in this brush which, for some of you, might seem the bottom of the range. I wish I had bought one earlier because it is pure luxury to use, and because I wasted all those years with a cheapy while this one would probably have lasted the rest of my life even if I'd bought it years ago.
I recommend this to anyone who doesn't already own a decent brush. It's not expensive considering the quality and the pleasure.

Just got this brush and I’m overwhelmed. This is a great badger brush for the price I paid for it, £7.49. The handle feel good, it is just large enough to be comfortable, the knot is 23mm and only time will tell if it’s going to last. The brush tip aren’t as soft as a silver tip badger, somewhere between that and a bore bristled brush, perfect for soaps or anything for that matter. Gives a good lather and just keeps giving. If you’re on a budget you can’t go wrong with this brush.

An excellent brush at an amazing price. No problem getting a good lather with it from shaving creams (which I prefer). Outperforms a badger brush I bought for twice this price.

Upgraded from a bristle brush i brought from here a couple of years ago, you can tell the difference in it straight away - well worth spending an extra few quid in this type of brush. The soap easily costs the bristles and it feels nice as you apply the brush to your face

This is a great quality shaving brush despite the reasonable price. Having recently been introduced to double edge shaving, I purchased two synthetic brushes but despite my best efforts neither would produce a substantial lather. a true badger brush really does make all the difference. A must buy for someone who wants quality on a budget.

Living in two different apartments means investing in another set of shaving equipment. After a measly 5 Euro stand in found at the local grocery store (terrible) I decided to invest in this budget brush. Didn’t expect much but was very surprised about the quality. It’s big, it’s soft and it soaks up water very well. In fact, I think that I may prefer this to my silver tip brush that has been my number one for a couple of years now. If you’re in doubt or can’t choose between entry or even mid-level brushes, go with this one.

Very impressed by the quality. Not expensive but punches well above its weight.

This has to be the best value brush out there. I've had it for over a week. It's been used every day and has not shed a single hair, and the lather is superb. My previous brush was another well known make, cost three times as much. shed up to a dozen hairs each time it was used, and the lather was only average. I'll stick with this brush should I ever need a replacement.

The Guv'nor Pure badger brush is rapidly becoming a best-seller for a number of reasons. Typically we would suggest the Progress Vulfix 404 mixed badger/boar hair brush as an inexpensive entry level brush. However, for a little more money you can get this all badger hair brush with one of the main features that people love about the Progress Vulfix 404, a hefty 23mm knot! This means that this brush makes a fabulous workhorse for lathering both soaps and creams. We like to think of it as a cheap upgrade to the 404 and is better than most of the other more expensive entry level Pure badger grade hair brushes we sell.
