I own 4 or 5. Best brush I have used. Had them for a few years at least. I don't use my Iwata anymore. A dozen others I know that tried one say the same. I love the .8 needle. Easy to clean, Feels great in my hand.
Post your opinions....
I didn't need to clarify.... I can read.... LOL.
I just find it funny that some make a super long reply........ W/O actually even trying to read the subject title first. That's real helpful...
I use end nippers and never break a hook, Unless they are forged.... So I don't use those.

$10 for 50..... You want B size "L" large.... Size "XL" is the full size you see the big brands use.... "L" is perfect for 1/8-1/4 oz and 3/0 hooks.
