The Big Red Aluminium Handle Synthetic Shaving Brushis packed with super-soft yet durable synthetic fibre hair. The knot is 30mm wide where it goes into the handle, this is a much larger knot than most shaving brushes have - hence the name Big Red.\nThe colour-anodised, satin finish, red aluminium handle is shaped to deliver a firm grip even when wet. The handle is solid, not hollow and it's made from architectural/furniture grade 6063 aluminium and CNC machined to a wonderful, flawless finish with a pleasing soft sheen. The handle adds nice heft to the brush which weighs in at 170g, typically a shaving brush weighs around 60g.\nThe synthetic fibres have good backbone and they will effortlessly lather up shaving soaps and creams.\nThe shaving brush has a large knot of hair, this OneBlade stainless steel stand looks really good with The Big Red and the knot sits nicely on the stand.\nThis is a nice touch, 'BIG RED' is stamped on the base.\n\nColour-anodising is not a plating, it cannot peel off. Composed entirely of aluminium oxide it is fully integrated with the aluminium substrate. The colour will not fade over the years and the finish delivers exceptional abrasion resistance.
