Hey guys,
I'm in the market for a new brush. Seems mice like to chew these up.
Any suggestions?

I bought mine at Caswell Massey: http://www.caswellmassey.com/store/item.aspx?DepartmentId=74&ItemId=351&SortBy=& and have gotten many years service out of it. Some other places that sell brushes, etc. are:

I prefer the medium sized badger brushes as I think they work best on my face. I had a non-badger brush and it just didn't lather up the soap near as well as the badger brush.

They eat any more of your pipes?
You need a cat or two. Laughing

My all time favorite boar is the Omega "Big Red" Professional. It's the high loft version of the Professional.
