Royal & Lang Nickel Soft-Grip Dagger Striper Paintbrush, Gold Taklon, 1/4"

I like the feel of the brush handle as well as the snappiness of the bristles. Good brush for the price and comparable to more expensive brushes in performance.

I have a bunch of these and they perform well. I have duplicates of some because I use these for not only watercolor but masking as well. (BTW, when you mask, wet the brush, soap it up really well, and THEN mask your image. The brush will clean up perfectly and then become usuable again for painting.) Very yummy brushes!

I love this shape of a brush, it allows fitting into tight spots and can still be used for a wash on smaller work. When held upright pinched in thumb, and first two fingers you can rotate it to create a ribbon of thin to thick color. Useful for painting sparkling water or a ribbon hanging.Taklon cleans off quickly which makes switching from one color to another easier. Has a lot of snap so returns to its shape well.

My only issue with this brush is that I wish it held more water in the bristles like some of my other brushes do. It tends to run dry very quickly, which isn't ideal when working with watercolor. Also, when it arrived some of the bristles were bent back and distorted out of line inside the packaging so they don't line up and create a crisp edge even when wet... but at this price point I can't really complain too much.

fast delivery, product as described.

got these items this week love them my fav paint brushes thank you chris harmon

Love it!

Good brush, use it for latex based paint touch ups, very precise and easy to handle.

Quite nice, but I replaced it with a squirrel brush, which is much softer and holds the paint better.
