24mm G5A™ SHD Premium Synthetic Knot

  • Sale
  • Regular price $25.00
Shipping calculated at checkout.

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 denest 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 (68mm). Keep this in mind when setting the knot, you'll need a slightly more shallow hole!

Base Diameter: 24mm (

± 0.5 - 1mm)

Luxurious!

First, the 24 was out of stock so I was upgraded to a 26 at no additional cost. The knot holds an enormous amount of moist lather. Soft and smooth yet has enough scrub to be comfortable. Using this knot almost feels decadent. So soft and plush and luxurious. I'm just not used to being this pampered when I shave. Luxuriously decadent! Very impressed with this purchase.

My new favorite! 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!

Everything you could ask for in a Synthetic

Great synthetic: soft tips, fibres have better backbone than regular synthetics, fibre loss is minimal/non-existent, dries quickly. And of course, no animal aroma.

When tested against a Japanese knot, this knot held more water within the fibres, rather than between them. As a result, it picked up less water in total, but as a proportion of it's weight, retained a greater percentage. It created a far better lather.

In fact, I was looking for a synthetic that would lather well with soaps (rather than creams). This one does it quite well. No need to look any further.

Well done AP Shave.
