2019 DFS Movember LE - Viking Shaving Brush

First round of orders have been processed - you should be seeing the brushes this week, please post some pics of them in action when you can!

Also, the additional knots showed up yesterday and man are they nice! I'll try to get a pic of a few of them later to post in here.

Thanks again all!

Mine arrived today. It's a beautiful and very ergonomic handle.  The bulb knot is ultra-dense with creamy soft tips- the loft is nice and low.  I'm looking forward to its maiden voyage.

Knot is damp in the photo.  Better photo coming...

Looks awesome, thanks for the post! Looking forward to hearing how it performs.

I have been waiting for the knot to dry. It's extremely dense and has taken longer than usual to dry out. Actually hoping that it's not too dense. My first use was okay but the lather stayed a bit thin so it is hard to evaluate from that shave.  I'll lather it again soon.
Cheers

Wow. I am very impressed by this brush based on the handle and knot setting (actual shave usage pending). The handle is beautiful and has a nice weight. I like the viking coin stamp on the bottom. The knot is set such that there is no glue bump, unless these are hand tied? Anyways, I'm very excited to give this a try but I might not shave until 1st week of December. Thanks DFS andrewjs18  and Viking Soap Viking.

You kinda have to overload these knots, they are hogs but they build up a great lather once you dial them in.

Thanks for your kind words! I've never seen a glue bump on any of these knots, it's pretty amazing. Better knock on wood!

Sorry for my delay, but I just ordered a brush as well (fan).
