I often use the Fine Stout brush (fineaccoutrements.com) with a chubby style resin handle and angel hair synthetic knot (24mm x 50mm). Currently goes for around $30 and the handle comes in several different colors... He sells decent aftershaves and soaps, too. My Rudy Vey chubby handle with a shaveMac badger knot was less 'budget' minded... (At work so no pics right now..)
Great idea! I've got a Chubby 2 in best that's a shedder.

I have had a mixed experience with my 6 Simpson brushes. There is no question in my mind that a Simpson is more likely to be a shedder than any other manufacturer whose brushes I own. A non-shedding Simpson can be a joy to use. After a year, a shedding Simpson brush is the owner‘s problem.
Rudy Vey is a fine artisan who stands behind his products. One of my LE brushes fell apart literally. The Shavemac knot separated into two pieces and fell out after about 2 years. Rudy saw the picture, determined that the knot was defective. He replaced the knot at no charge and made it abundantly clear to me that some manufacturers stand behind their products while others stand behind their fine print.
You may not get a cheap brush from Rudy, but you will get a quality brush. Your brush will also be designed based on what you like and not how the brush came out.
I have three brushes made by Rudy and when the time comes will likely buy more. I will not buy another Simpson brush. For my money a Rudy Vey brush is superior to a Simpson brush.

Are there any handle-makers based in Europe that you can buy just the handle from? There's plenty of options in the states but I imagine that the shipping will make it tough to stay in budget.
Try Aliexpress. Free shipping internationally. You can get just the handles.
