The G5A features the following:

- Natural-looking synthetic fibers imported from Germany

- The hair on the G5A is very similar to that of other big name high end synthetic knots. For reference, it’s most similar to the Omega EVO.

- This knot has been packed with SHD density to make it the densest possible knot for it’s size (20% more hair).

- Excellent backbone. This German hair uses a wavy style hair to clump the tips and gives it more backbone while still retaining that amazing synthetic softness. It’s a truly luxurious experience with this knot.

- Very soft tips (approx. very soft to above average softness compared to other synthetics)

- A common problem with the G4 knots you’ve seen on the market is that they tend to tangle in the center after use. This problem does not occur in the G5A hair!

-It retains water in a more efficient manner than traditional synthetics.

NOTE: These knots contain and inherently shorter height (approx. 65mm) compared to other synthetics (68-70mm). Keep this in mind when setting the knot, you'll need a slightly more shallow hole!

Base Diameter: 26mm (

Good backbone, good looking, thristy knot

Another great product from AP Shave. This knot has a good backbone, so it does not splay out like a fan knot. It looks great and when dry looks a lot like a Tri-band Badger knot. It really soaks up the hot water in my skuttle quickly and efficiently works the shave lather into the beard stubble to hydrate it for easy removal.

Superb knot

This was my first attempt at assembly. The knot exceeded all expectations. Great scrub but still soft on the face and produces tons of lather. Quickly becoming my favorite in my synthetic and boar collection.

Great knot to begin the wonderful G5 series

The G5A is a super soft tipped brush with a decent backbone. Great brush for bowl lathering and a good brush for face lathering if you are more of a "painter". If you are a a pure face lather shaver, the G5C might be a brush you could look at. Regardless, all of AP Shave Co brushes are of outstanding quality. I have six of them already....

My favorite knot! Killer knot!

This knot is just awesome! Like all the G5 knots, the G5A whips up a lather quickly, has great backbone, soft tips, cleans up & dries quickly. This knot is just a little better than the G5B or C, IMO. I prefer its shape to the G5C, and it’s performance just a little better than the G5B. That being said, all the G5 knots are awesome, so if you don’t have or want to spend the money on a G5A, a G5B or C are still excellent choices! The G5 knots are the very best I’ve tried, my AP brushes blow the doors off all my Omega, PAA, Razorock, Semogue, Vikings Blade and Yaqi Brushes hands down!

The knot is great. Very soft while also having plenty of backbone. Overall it's great. Andrew, the owner, provides amazing customer service. I'll definitely be back if I ever need another brush!
