AS2


This AS2 was also made for Abraham & Straus and is just slightly smaller than the modern Simpson M7 handle. I've seen similar A&S Simpson brushes stamped M6 which fits with the smaller size.

AS4-Polo8

Case


The Case is one of Simpsons smaller brushes and was designed to fit in a vented tube that could be purchased separately to use as a Travel Brush.

Chubby


The absolute densest Simpson Shaving brush is the Chubby series, available in two types of Badger Hair and three sizes. Regardless of which size or grade of hair, the Chubby brushes have more actual hairs than any other Simpson brush and feel pillowy on your face.

Coates-Beaufort


This Beaufort was labeled under the Coates name. Simpson had two brands and Coates was used mostly for hair brushes.

The Special is among Simpsons least expensive shaving brushes but it performs just like the more expensive models.

The Colonel X2L is available in only one size but is great at making lather under most any conditions.
