I started with a cashmere fan, knot. It it was extremely soft, but I did not like how flimsy it was. It was really hard to load the soap because it had absolutely no backbone at all. It would be great with a cream. So I purchased the bulb, and has become my second favorite knot! My favorite is your golden nib, three banded knot. If you love extremely soft bristles, as I do, you will absolutely love the cashmere bulb! It has enough backbone to load well from a tub. I absolutely love it! I also appreciate how fast you can get them to us in the United States.

Best synth in the market... great balance between softness and good splay

Best brush I have in my den. Softest on my face, lathers extremely fast and the splay is next level. Incredible brush, looking forward to getting more from APShaveCo and have recommended Andrew's products to buddies at work. Great to work with and a pleasure doing business.

This handle feels great! This handle is exceptionally comfortable to hold, even though I don't have large hands (measuring only 8" from middle finger tip to wrist). I like it so much that I bought two. This black one is paired with a 26mm Cashmere knot and makes a very handsome package. The other is paired with a SynBad knot. Why two? Because a little variety makes life more interesting :).

This brush is a dream. It is smooth, exceptionally soft on the face while providing excellent backbone for face lathering. Pairing it with the Black Wood Brush Handle produces a visually elegant package to enjoy when I start my daily shave.

The best shaving brush I ever had!

The best shaving brush I ever had.

Absolutely exceptional quality and customer assistance. The handle looks even better in the hands than in the picture.

Love it.Same great quality as the 28mm but smaller.Softening up very nicely already 🙂

Wonderful brush knot, im very happy with it. Set it high in my handle and still has solid backbone to it

This is a brilliant knot

I ordered this as it was virtually the only handle that could accommodate a 30mm finest badger knot that I bought, it fit beautifully and the quality and weight of the handle is exceptional, it took a while to get here due to the weather, but it was worth the wait, hopefully more item that fit a 28mm knot will be introduced, I won't hesitate to buy more items from AP Shave.

AP offers free knot setting. You can specify your loft or leave it to the masters to decide. I chose to let the master decide and I was provide with an excellent setting perfect loft and splay. Really enjoying my expertly set knot in my shave Mac crushed mud resin handle with 26 mm

Very good brush. Holds water well and lathers great. Good everyday knot for all types or shaving cream

Very well made. Good grip wet or dry very nice size and fit in hand. Accepts variety of knots.
