Amphora 26 mm Satin Somerset
$ 175.00


This is the fourth in a series of Paladin shaving brush offerings that pay tribute to the McInroy’s legacy. The first three featured broadly recognizable designs. This one introduces a handle design developed by Lynn McInroy that did not advance beyond prototyping. That might have had something to do with its original scaling, which incorporated a 22 mm socket diameter. We increased the handle’s size to match with a 26 mm socket. The result, in our opinion, is both aesthetically appealing and highly ergonomic. We are very proud to present the Amphora.


At present, we only offer knots containing what is commonly referred to as 2-band badger hair, the characteristics of which combine resilient (springy) shafts with soft tips. High quality knots of this type are prized for their overall performance. The resilience of 2-band hair confers optimal backbone without excessive density. As a result, 2-band knots typically deliver superior lather production and flow-through without sacrificing comfort in use. We offer these knots first and foremost because they are what we prefer to use ourselves. We offer our select badger knot, our synthetic knot and an Oumo Badger knot
