Great Brushes! What I love about these is their versatility. They have the right blend of natural & synthetic to hold generous amount of water for making even washes, soft, and spring back into shape to make fine, fine lines even on the largest brush. Love this versatility! The handles have a nice feel and pleasure to hold and play on paper with. I had bought their dagger brushes and was so impressed that I thought I would give these a try--and these again exceeded my expectations. A larger flat pure Kolinsky sable is near impossible to find and this is a great alternative to achieve the larger watercolor strokes, blended and separated, that I am like to play on paper with. Highly recommend!

Very nice set of Hake brushes. They perform very well in my wet into wear watercolor painting.

I took a chance on these brushes and was pleasantly surprised by the smooth action of bristles across the paper. They hold the right amount of water and the flat handle feels quite comfortable. Removing the glue from the bristles in boiling water as suggested took several tries but was simple there was no shedding of bristles at all.

These brushes are heavily sized with some coating to keep their shape until use. Appreciated! They are pretty thick once the sizing is washed out so they hold a lot of watercolor paint but they still can create a rather fine line or edge. Versatile and beautifully made.

I was disappointed as the brushes are OK for a flat Wash but they don’t have much spring back so I was a little disappointed.

Very nice

These we’re better than I expected. The price is really good and the brushes are great. They hold lots of water and paint while keeping a chiseled point. Love them.

Reviews encouraging but still, I’ve found loose hairs that come loose when painting. Also, one of the brushes has something hard and pointy sticking out from handle into brush hairs. Update: It’s been only a few months since I bought these and suddenly dozens of hairs have started falling out with just a couple strokes! It’s getting worse!
