NON-USA CUSTOMERS;  Unless your order's value is >$450 or has at least one item explicitly stating "includes EMS express mail", free tracking is NOT included-you must optionally elect to purchase it (if you want it).  Service ranges 7-90 days and there's absolutely no way to find out what's going on.

THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO USA ORDERS WHICH ARE ALWAYS INSURED(AND TRACKED FOR ALL BUT THE VERY SMALLEST).

We'll happily accept small orders from all over earth, however...

PURCHASE WITHOUT TRACKING = YOU ASSUME ALL RISK OF LOSS

We've no option to add any tracking to regular 1st class int'l mail.
In ~3 years (>10000 att. @ this writing), overall risk of 'disappearance' is well below 1%, with EU/Canada ~0.2% and Australia/New Zealand/GB perfect thus far w/ >2000 combined attempts.  There are a few bad apples, though.

The 2013 rates have skyrockted some ~25% or more across the board, so here we are partially subsidizing EMS Express Mail's very high cost, which starts well north of $40 and moves up based on a weight in a jiffy!.
This costly option buys speed & safety, but only you can decide if it is worth it to you.  Minimum order value of $150 to elect this option.

Vulfix is a prominent manufacturer of premium shaving brushes, producing them on the Isle of Man off of England's coast.  Their brushes are reliable, hand-made products with very good quality control and consistency.

Vulfix offers 3 grades of badger hair.

Their standard grade's "Pure Badger", a high quality excellent at retaining water and known to be somewhat firmer at the tip.  They've a little 'prickly' to them in my opinion, but do have their fans, too.

The Vulfix bread-n'-butter "Super Badger" has softer tips and superior water retention quality.  It gives a pretty luxurious, enveloping experience.  It is identical to Simpsons brushes marketed as "Best Badger" (they're the same folks making both brands of brushes).

Finally at the pinnacle lies their "Silvertip Badger" hair (identical to Simpsons' 'Super Badger'), which offers the highest levels of heat/moisture retention along with the softest of tips.

Our measurements listed here are done by hand from the actual stock.  We measure the knots outer diameter with a caliper.  These measurements perhaps vary from other distributors or even Vulfix themselves, but can be regarded as consistent from brush to brush within this site.  However, these are truly handmade products, and the variance within a handmade product is far more than that in something aided significantly by machinery.

Vulfix 374, 375, 376 (in faux horn), and 377 brushes

The Vulfix 374-377 series are badger brushes with lathe-turned resin handles.  Shape and relative dimensions of 374, 375, 376, and 377 are identical; only scale changes.  These luxurious, 'floppy' brushes have supremely soft hair and handles that are skinny right near the bottom, flaring out towards the base at about 45° from the narrowest point.  Hold nearest bottom and (in addition to shoulder/elbow action you use) "flick" the brush a bit with your fingertips to gain lather.

We now source both the traditional Vulfix "super" badger hair, as well as their ultra-premium "silvertip" hair, the same hair used in Simpsons' "Super" badger brushes.  The silvertip hair holds water and heat a little better, but it is the incredible softness at the ends of the strands which makes it stand out.  The 374-377 are all about being soft, and the silvertip models only further accentuate this.  These aren't as densely packed as Simpsons-labeled brushes, but that's not in the spirit of these models anyways, and represent a tremendous value in luxury.

Vulfix 2233-2236

The Vulfix 2233-2236 series are badger brushes with lathe-turned resin handles.  Shape/relative dimensions of 2233, 2234, 2235, and 2236 are identical; only scale changes.  These luxurious 'floppy' brushes deliver a loving mop of hair.  They've got a sort of key-shaped and ridged handle.

We now source both the traditional Vulfix "super" badger hair, as well as their ultra-premium "silvertip" hair, which is the same hair used in Simpsons' "Super" badger brushes.  The silvertip hair holds water and heat a little better, but it is the incredible softness at the ends of the strands which makes it stand out.  The 2233-2236 are all about being soft, and the silvertip models only further accentuate this. These aren't as densely packed as Simpsons-labeled brushes, but that's not in the spirit of these models anyways.  To me they represent a tremendous value in luxury.

By far and away our best selling brushes are 2234 and 2235 in 'standard' super badger.

If you're getting a Vulfix brush stand, be aware that while 2236 fits in there fine, its handle has so much mass relative to the light stand that the combined kit becomes top-heavy and will be best served to be stuck to the wall with the included adhesive backing.

Muhle 'RV' Helicoid Brush TubeThe Mühle RV Plastic Helicoid Brush Tube borrows from the best in the world of telescope eyepieces, but of course a much different size.   This is a sturdy, vented plastic tube which twists open and closed, and has an internal space which accommodates most brushes one would practically choose to take on travels.   The maximum outer dimensions are about 2x5", and internally it accepts brushes with handle diameters of up to 41mm.  There's more internal height clearance than would be needed for any brush but a turnback, which of course has its own unique container.  The RV tubes weigh just 1 ounce.  Shipping it by itself is comparatively expensive and LOTS of folks have taken advantage of this, so I apologize that we have to offer it at two prices.

Vulfix

Vulfix shaving creams

Vulfix Luxury Shaving Cream

Made in England and, this 'traditional British shaving cream' is high-quality stuff strong on scent.

Given quantity and price, this is the poor man's taste of the complex scents that you pay through the nose for in the famed old established English brands.  Proraso may be their equal in function, but not in odor's delight.

You'll get a 180-gram tub of soft cream perfect for dipping wet brushes directly within.  I get a few months of daily use from a single tub, even from a large cream-eating brush.

Available in Persian Musk, Sicilian Lime, Lavender, delicious Sandalwood, English Rose, and Lavender.  Tremendous viscosity.  Being a 'quaint' company, these are sealed with old-fashioned household tape from the maker, and packed by weight-expect odd cream topography when opening.

These creams vary in density/consistency, and of course by temperature (these observations are based on opening them for sample portioning)...the lime always looks like melted ice cream to me, but it is a huge seller, and everyone's obviously seeing those things as they get 'em and still keep buying them.  Musk's usually firm, rose/lime very runny, lavender kind of between the two, and usually when I see them the Sandalwood's more of a 'cream of wheat' texture.  Stir them with a toothpick and put in the fridge for a bit and they'll firm up, but either way as long as the mixture's well dispersed (not separating as a solution) it'll lather identically as ever.

Vulfix Ceramic Shaving Mugs
Vulfix Classic Shaving Mugs are available emblazoned with or without their famed Vulfix Old Original logo.  These mugs hold water on the bottom and you put a bar of shaving soap in the top; nearly any typical shaving soap (every soap we sell) fits, to a maximum of ~70mm.  Let your shaving brush bristles sit in the warm water for a bit, shake it out, and lather up your soap.  The heat rising from the water into the area which holds the soap will help soften the soap.  Measures 4.25" (107mm) tall, 3.4" (86mm) wide at the base, and 6" (150mm) from handle to spout.  Made in England.
