Shavemac 23/48 DO1 Custom

[MasterP]

Gents,
Here's my new Shavemac Custom. It's a 23mm knot with a 48mm loft in DO1 hair. It's great brush. Just want to thank brother Vior for answering all my questions.

Great looking brush, I have one that is very similar in size.
I think the one I have is actually one of Vior's old ones.

If I had to get a custom shavemac... I would get one very similar to that one. Nice work!

Muy nice, I have 23/47 but with an English head and I love it!

 

[Dharion]

Looks like a hell lot of fun. Use and enjoy

 

[domino]

Enjoy!
Very nice brush

Nice looking brush! That is one of my favorite Shavemac handles.

 

[slippy]

That is one classy handle! Nice brush

Thanks Guys, I think that is their best handle. If they had a genuine horn handle in that shape it would be better, but Bernd told me that their genuine horn handle only comes in one shape and only for 23mm.

Funny, but you have the exact brush I want.

I have the same handle, but with a Silvertip rather than D01 knot, longer loft. And I have a D01 brush, but with a (too small for me) 19mm knot.

If I were to order another Shavemac, I'd get one just like yours.

If I ever buy another Shavemac, it will have that handle. It looks great.

Thanks Guys,
I really like the handle. It has a good backbone too. I think the DO1 is nice, and worth it. I think I need to complement my 23/48 with a 26mm or a 28mm knot. What you guys think? I would get that same handle too.

What else do you already have? Or is your D01 your first and only brush? Do you use mainly soaps or creams?

It might be fun to branch out into something completely different. A Rooney, Simpson, Plisson, Kent or something..?

Shavemac Silvertip 30mm

Simpson's Chubby 1 Best
Simpson's Chubby 1 Super

It looks great. I'm glad to see you were able to get it. Give it some time to fully break in and I'm almost positive it will be one of your favorite brushes.

You sure like low-loft brushes, don't you? (Me too.)

Oh yeah, All my Rooney's are from VB. Jim got me hooked on the backbone phenomenon.
