***Knot Descriptions****
>(High Mountain White Badger) High Mountain White Badger comes only from badgers found in the high mountains of China. With its characteristic long white tips and thick middle band, HMW is prized for its excellent water retention, backbone, and extremely soft tips. There is no better natural hair knot! While the standard HMW knot is luxurious and dense, the High Density HMW is extremely dense, with about 25% more hair. Available only in 24mm.
>(Silvertip Badger) The silvertip badger is one of the most expensive and rare type of badger hair since it comes strictly from the neck and muzzle of the badger. The silvertip badger offers superior water retention and superb lathering capability. The softness of the bristles make for a very comfortable experience. Our silvertip knots are unbleached with natural colored tips, that vary from grey to off-white. Those wanting the added luxury and “cushiony” feel should opt for the silvertip brush. While the standard Silvertip knot is luxurious and dense, the High Density Silvertip knot is extremely dense, with about 25% more hair.
>(Two Band Badger) If you are looking for good all around performer, then you should consider a two band brush. These knots are densely packed, with an improved quality and texture that is immediately noticeable. Most users notice a more balanced experience with this grade of brush, combining the scrubbiness of a pure badger brush with the softness and improved lathering of a silvertip brush.
>(Pure Badger) The pure badger brush is genuine high-grade badger hair for a comfortable lather every time. These knots are densely packed. The characteristically blunt edges of the pure badger hairs work doubly in your favor: They build an effective lather and exfoliate skin after raising the whiskers into a shavable stance.
>(Boar) These 100% Boar Hair knots offer the ultimate in “scritchiness” along with an unparalleled backbone. There is no better scrub than these knots!
>(Synthetic) The synthetic knots are a great choice for those who don’t like using natural animal hair, but still, want a great shave. They are very soft feel to the skin without the “scrubbiness” of badger knots. Unlike animal hair brushes, synthetics don’t require presoaking, dry very quickly, and there is no wild odor. The Timberwolf, Black & White, and Faux Badger knots all have a good density and moderate backbone when set at 15mm depth. The Brown and Beige knots are a bit more on the “floppy” side with the same soft feel. Extra backbone can be achieved by setting the knot deeper at the expense of loft, upon request.
> (Handle without knot) This handle is available a la carte for those wishing to use their own knot. If you chose this option, you will receive just a brush handle with no knot. All knot bored are bored ~1.5mm over the nominal size, for example a 24mm socket is ~25.5mm x 15mm deep. These bore dimensions work well with true to size knots, although some adjustment may be necessary. We do not warrant that this is compatible with any other suppliers knots, especially substandard knots that run small.

beautiful, very well made, I took the large size but I think the smaller one is better for whipping soap… I want to use it more and be more precise for a further review

This is my second bowl from this merchant. I bought the large size bowl as I tend to use larger shaving brushes like the Simpson Chubby 2 and Chubby3. The shaving bowl works really well in generating lots of lather because of the ridges that are there in the bottom on the bowl. My usual routine is to fill the bowl with hot water and soak the shaving brush I plan to use that morning. After about a couple of minutes, I empty the bowl and load the shaving brush with soap or cream. Once loaded, I whisk the brush in this bowl to get oodles of lather. Being made of resin it keeps the warmth from the hot water and is very light as well. The colors are so unusual, it looks great just standing on your bathroom countertop. I’m very satisfied with this purchase and would recommend this product to anyone looking for a shaving bowl.

Absolutely beautiful brush handle. Pictures do not do it justice
Joseph C. –
This shaving brush is of the highest quality and the handle is a thing of beauty. The brush has plenty of bounce and splays very well, it also holds tons of soap and makes a wonderful lather from scooped soap worked up in the bowl. I highly recommend this brush, you will never find a better brush at any price. I have two of these wonderful brushes now.

STUNNING!!! This brush is a perfect example of a skilled artisan masterfully expressing his skills. Beautiful copper and blue swirled pattern in a #8 contour with a very dense badger 2 band knot. Perfect combination of soft and dense for creating luxurious lather. Seller promptly responded to my request to change shipping. VERY responsive and great to work with. HIGHLY recommend this seller and his brushes and bowls. Located in Louisiana.

Beautiful handle. Excellent knot. The best customer service you can find. A real effort is made to make sure each customer is happy.

This “Copper Ore” Shaving Brush is worth the wait, as each one is hand made and no two are exactly alike. My wife and I purchased it as a Christmas gift for a friend, who was as impressed with it as we were. I’m also thinking about choosing one the choices from the CaYuen Workshop for myself.

Absolutely stunning brush handle, the quality and craftsmanship are outstanding. The only negative was the postage that just took weeks to arrive the US and UK postal service aren’t that great. But that’s not the sellers fault, definitely worth the wait 総

Wonderful shave brush. The handle is bigger than expected (in a good way). The brush has a small loft than expected (in a bad way). But, the performance of the silvertip is impeccable!

Awesome brush with great loft and backbone. One shave in and it’s my go-to brush!
Sid –
I’m 74 years old and been a wet shaver most of my life. I’ve used several premium brushes over the years, including Thater, Mondial, Simpson, and Paladin. The brushes made by CaYuen equal, and in cases exceed, the handle beauty and knot quality of other premium brushes I’ve used. I’d grab one while you can (before he raises the price) — it’s a steal. They’re 1/2 to 1/3 the price of a Paladin brush.

Great shaving brush. I use them whenever I am shaving. I’m glad I found these items at a fraction of what I would have paid on or at a retailer.

Excellent quality. The handle is gorgeous and the Silvertip Badger knot is premium performance. I love it!

I ordered the handle only without a knot and added my own. The quality of the handle and colors actually look better in person than in the listing. For the price, this is hard to beat. I ordered size # 18 and while it’s a great-looking shape it just feels massive in the hand when using the brush. Took the full 3 or so weeks to arrive but well worth the wait!
Geoff –
This is a beautiful brush. Great company. I’m more than happy and excited to use it.

I ordered this shaving brush from the picture, and it looks exactly like the picture except for the shape I chose. The craftsmanship is terrific, and I expect I will be using this brush for the rest of my life. The colors are vibrant, it is a pleasure to hold, and it works up a lather like it is supposed to. What else could I ask for?
