For those of you who loved the Cosmos or the Handover, the Kafka striping brush definately blows those brushes away, it is smooth with plenty of body and length. It holds as much paint as you can load and pulling a line is a breeze, no wonder Bobbo pulled a 17 foot line.
Bobbo sent me the same set he used as did Hannukaine, Myers and Lil'Toot. The wood handle can be cut down to fit anyones hand and when you stripe with it, it follows your every wish. For me, some brushes are just too long and aren't made with the quality control this Kafka seems to have been made with. The hair is awesome as is the ferrel which holds it in place. This brush set is being sent around the country to be tested by a number of pinstripers and will probably make its introduction around June or July.
When this brush set becomes available, other swords will be judged in comparison with the Kafka and not the other way around.
BTW, I knocked out 5 vehicles in 1/2 the time I normally take and that ain't no BS

Well folks, the only Kafka brushes available at this time are his Scroll Brushes which are also new and those are also awesome. Kafka just came out with #'s 0-1-3 to add to the # 5and 6 I believe. They aren't anything like an Outliner as they come to a point and can be used to do signatures as well as make you look like a Pro, using them.
Its really about time that someone put some extra thought into assuring that their brushes are of quality and not just living on reputation amongst us

Randy, if a pro striper can knock out 5 vehicles in 1/2 the time with the ultimate brushes . . .
the novice certainly should check out those brushes to learn the skill . . .
If I get serious about learning to do something . . .I want to use the best materials available so I'm looking forward to when the stripers become available on the market!

Thanks for the contact number- just called and ordered a set and put in a pre-oder for the swords. Should be cool!

Me five! Make sure you all tell Steve you learned about his new brushes here in Letterville! There's no way to reach so many potential users for so little!
