There’s a Shavemac on here ( BST )

£37.05 | "FS"-28mm Big Knot Silvertip Badger Shaving Brush Cream/Black Handle +FREE SHIPPINGI’ve seen that one but would really like something bigger, ideally 28mm - will probably keep an eye out to see if anything else pops up, or see if SV 26mm surfaces somewhere on bst lol
The SV is a very dense knot and feels very big for 26 mm..even my Chubby 2 Manchurian is only 27 mm and it’s huge any bigger would be too big for face shaving in my opinion..don’t get sucked in by the biggest being the best sometimes it’s overkill, just a bit of honest adviceI’ve seen that one but would really like something bigger, ideally 28mm - will probably keep an eye out to see if anything else pops up, or see if SV 26mm surfaces somewhere on bst lol
Brushes are fairly subjective and down to personal preference, but for what it's worth.Currently I have 4 brushes in my 'rotation' (okay - not really a rotation - more like on a shelf to pick whichever one I feel like).
Yaqi 24mm 2band badger
Stirling 24mm finest badger Fan
Yaqi 26mm mysterious space tuxedo
Yaqi 24mm purple haze mew brown
2 of them I don't see myself reaching for as often - the stirling (not sure whether it's the hair or the shape - somehow prefer the yaqi badger to this one), and the 24mm yaqi (feels a bit on smaller side after using it for a while - 26mm is more of my go to). Probably will sell on the two I don't use as much and get one with bigger knot.
Now I'm contemplating getting another badger brush - preferably in 26mm or 28mm knot. Do you have any recommendations for nice knots/brushes?
My dream one would be this : https://www.declarationgrooming.com/products/the-jefferson-28mm-snowblivion-b11 but the funds for brush definitely aren't there lol!
I've had that 28mm one in the link for about a year and a half. It's very big and soft. It's great for face latheringThanks guys - I’ll keep an eye out on BST (as usual) and have a look into the brushes mentioned.
Chris @Boycie83 didnt you get a FS one recently? How did you find it?
I regularly rotate between a T&H Super Badger, a Shavemac 2-Band Silvertip, and a custom Romera Chubby Manchurian Badger. But, my clear hands-down favorite is my Savile Row 3824 silvertip. I’d recommend it in a heartbeat. https://www.qedusa.com/savile-savile-3824-silvertip-badger-24mm-knot-p-137.htmlCurrently I have 4 brushes in my 'rotation' (okay - not really a rotation - more like on a shelf to pick whichever one I feel like).
