Culmak



Culmak have been making hand finished brushes in the UK since 1805. Take a look at the Culmak website and you will find just a few low priced shaving products. I bought this Viscount bristle shaving brush for just £4.99 delivered. Take out postage and VAT, and it leaves just £3.08 for Culmak. It's a stiff little brush, doesn't hold a lot of lather but it does whip it up and it's quite comfortable on the face. And it does the job. It's not only the Chinese who can offer great value.
