Simpson's "Major" Best Badger shaving brush
$150. Pick-up from Johnsonville.
Simpson's "Major" Best Badger shaving brush. Designed for travelling, but perfect for daily use at home too.
Bought in Australia in 2017 at AUD 220. The brush is currently going for GBP 92.80 (about NZD 190) on Simpson's official site, and USD 146.99 (around NZD 223) on West Coast Shaving's website, a popular male grooming product vendor in the US.
The brush is in excellent condition. The reason for selling it, is that I have become used to the brushes with synthetic fibres.
Pre-owned shaving brushes are not necessarily inferior to the new ones. Just like painting brushes, the performance gets better and reaches full potential with uses, this process is known as break-in. The brush is fully broken in, only received occasional use (around 3 to 5 uses per month) during the first year of purchase. The brush has been well cared for with regular cleaning and conditioning, even being unused for the past 4 years.
Simpson's shaving brushes are widely regarded & acknowledged as being the finest in the world. Some popular models such as "Duke" and "Chubby" are available in New Zealand, ranging from NZD 160 to 300, this model of "Major" is still nowhere to be found here to date.
Specifications:
Overall brush height - 116mm (Screwed together as a brush)
Handle height - 78mm
Knot loft - 38mm
Knot diameter - 17mm
Weight - 82g

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? π»π¨π
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
36.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weβre a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
