An excellent purchase. Often travel brushes are sized incorrectly (smaller than stated) but this is a good size 6 sable brush.
Review
I had high hopes for this brush, it has no point at all, blunt fat point, do yourself a favor and get a escoda reserva, too bad because I love the handle, what a waste of 24 usd

good brush
Review
I bought this brush and the Escoda Reserva (ER) 6 travel brush because I was looking for a single workhorse brush for daily sketching (A5 size) and I didn't know which one to pick. Caveat: I'm new to watercolour. I agree it's harder to get a point on this brush but it is possible to get fine lines. With the ER, the brush hairs look almost cut to a point whereas this DV is more of a "soft" round. In spite of this, I prefer the feel of the DV; it's a little more lush. The EV has a bit more spring and is a wee bit smaller, perhaps between the 5 and 6 in the DV.
Review
The hairs of the brush kept separating - even though I had just wetted the brush and ran it over my cloth.
Review
I am new to watercolor and this is the first and only Kolinsky Sable brush I own. I feel it is useless as it;s almost impossible to get a point with it and has too many stray hairs for trying to get an even wash with. Squirrel brushes (blend/synthetic/natural) can hold much much more water and yet hold a better point and shape. Regular synthetic brushes (even the ones from the same line) hold a point and are able to take more abuse. Maybe I got a bad one. The build quality of the handle is the only thing I liked.
Review
great products and good to have such a broad product range to compare
Review
Very compact and useful for travel, but the brush does not keep it's point when dry. You first have to wet it and form to a point before screwing back into protective casing, otherwise the hairs will become trapped and damaged.
Review
As with the larger brush this serves its purpose well. Handles beautifully.
