Still cheaper than those snooty badger things, but horse is still cheap as dirt! But all the horse knots are "extra soft", got no use for a paint brush.

Not the cheap Vie Longs, if they still make them.
Had a Vie Long horse hair brush and as you say they might not be too soft but they sure are too prickly for my liking.

Ah, yeah, that's why I gave mine away.
Perhaps the tips would break in eventually, but I'd been using it for a while before giving it away and they didn't seem to be breaking in much, if at all.
The tips aside, it was a pretty decent brush.

The tips never split on horse hair, and they are cut, so they're just blunt tips, two that I had got floppy after a couple of years so I swapped them with boar knots.
I think that if you bowl lather and paint your lather on, prickly tips would likely not be much of an issue. Being a face lathering fool it really was an issue.

Mine was all packed with ease earlier this week. Only issue I had was which EDT’s to take. Mrs Saint 5hough, check, double and triple check. I keep saying, what we may not have we will buy.

I came in from work yesterday at around 18:00 on the hottest day the UK has ever had at 38 to 40+ degrees in some places and my house thermostat said it was 29 degrees inside.
I came home today at the same time & the daily temperature was much cooler at about 24 degrees according to my car. Then I came into the house & the thermostat said it was 31 degrees & it was stifling.
Just an observation about how the house was warmed up the day before, even tins of beans in one of my cupboards could have been eaten warm . . . . Crazy for us I tell thee
