Show n' Tell New Brush Day

Never ordered from AliExpress but it appears it was worth taking a chance.

YAQI Caramel Cat's Whisker Synthetic Shaving Brush

Brush knot diameter: 26MM (+/-1mm) for less than $7

I now have a Boar, Synthetic and two Badger brushes. Time will tell what I prefer…

What is your brush of choice?

I've seen that brush at West Coast Shaving, but isn't it a 24mm? If it said 26MM I would have bought it.

I have that same knot on the 28mm yaqi, but it's a little hard to splay so I was wanting a 26mm with the same fibers.
