Medium Start Pure Badger Barberkost

The silver neck finish gives it a classy look on the counter, and the badger knot whips up a thick lather in seconds. It lifts my stubble well enough that I’m getting the closest shave I’ve had in years.

Took a few shaves to break in, but once it did, the silver neck finish looks sharp on the counter and the knot stays dense without shedding. Lathers up so rich that I barely need to re-dip the cream mid-pass.

First lather blew me away — the badger knot holds water like a sponge and that silver neck detail feels properly premium in hand. Handmade in England quality really shows in how smoothly it lifts the stubble for a close, comfortable shave.
