I am trying to find a heavier handled finest badger brush and I found these on ebay and was wondering if anyone has any experience with them? Here is the link to one I'm interested in: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Finest-Badg...052?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item257dce9b04

I have an Ace Silver tip 25 mm with Faux Ivory handle. Really nice brush with dense knot and very good quality of badger. So far it has not even lost one hair. Mine if i can remember well weights around 70 gr or so. The metal one weights130 gr so it going to be real heavy. Watch out if by accident you drop it in the tiles or bathroom sink.
I have a couple of wood handle silvertips from aceshaving and they perform just fine. I've had them for couple years and no problems what so ever.
Cant comment on the brand 'Ace' but I do have a silver tip in that handle shape. Very good in the hand.
I have this brush:

It is also an ACE, and for very little more when you take into consideration the shipping, you can step up to Silvertip.
It may be my favorite handles and is one of my favorite brushes. This is the brush that I gifted to my son, son-in-law, and my son-in-law's father confiscated until he could get his own. My son-in-law and his dad also have Whipped Dog 24 mm Badger brushes. They both prefer this handle although they say they slightly prefer the Whipped Dog knot. They both like the fact that the handle is a bit taller as well as the nicer shape compared to the Whipped Dog. YMMV
