Gentlemen,
I would appreciate your thoughts on the Simpson Persian Jar 2 in super badger.
I am not a fan of Simpson brushes. Oh, they are well made and quite handsome, yes, but every one I have tried has been scratchy. That's been more than a half a dozen Simpson models, from best to super badger, and sold all because of the "scritch."
The last was the Persian Jar 2 in best badger. I loved the design and the way it tucked in my hands, the size, the knot, the loft, and so on, but it was scratchy, and I sold it.
I have eyed the Persian Jar 2 in super badger for quite a while, but hesitate to spend the $160 some dollars on one only to find out the bloody thing is scratchy.
By scratchy I mean the least scratch. All my brushes are silvertips. It's not because I like to get fancy; rather, my extremely sensitive skin can't tolerate scratchy brushes. That's why I have given up on boar brushes, although I still have a soft spot for the Semogue 830, and have found it the least scratchy boar brush I have tried, once it breaks in, that is. As for pure badger brushes, oh, dear, dear, I really dislike them.
Those of you gentlemen who own the Simpson Persian 2 in super badger, do you find it scratchy? Even the least scratch after a few weeks of break it in. I will be grateful for your thoughts.
