I have to start by saying that I just recently picked up this brush after owning a 23mm Shavemac in Silver Tip. The specs on the brush are:
Knot: 28mm
Loft: 65mm
Handle: 55mm
Overall Height: 120mm
I am used to the smaller Shavemac, but was intrigued by the idea of a really nice big, plush, quality brush. I began searching, and came across the website http://straightrazordesigns.com and saw that they had a lot of the Shavemacs on sale. I ended up getting this model in a 28mm for less than $130 shipped. I know that this is a lot of $$, but in my opinion I think that you get what you pay for. The quality of the Shavemacs are second to none. I have made a few batches of lather, and while it does suck up a lot of water and lather, I find it rather easy to get a great batch of lather out of this brush. For anyone looking for a large brush, I would recommend heading over to that website while they still have them on sale!!!!!
