She no longer makes the large horse brushes---Zenith makes some 27-30mm horse brushes though.
Thanks.
That's what I thought, didn't know if that had changed, I'm still using one from there that was 24.5mm, or maybe 23.5, don't remember. The Zenith ones are soft and moppy IMO.
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

1st run with this flat handle single edge that takes an Injector blade with no issues what so ever. It's a mild shaver but gave a nice comfortable and close shave with attention to angle. Felt like a mild Schick Injector razor. Gonna be a long and wet day for work today. Have a fun day guys !!

This one did not and I've never seen one with anything but an open comb. That said it makes it very odd that it says on the bottom use this comb for close shave which I'm sure you saw. The only thing I saw when I was trying to search patent was someone named Kenyon suing Gillette in court over some sort of wheel design for side to side motions with a razor. Kind of bizarre I couldn't find info on it as you don't see them often but I don't think they're all that rare and believe there's one on the Bay right now that did not get bid on and is up again although the starting bid is twice what I paid for this.
