I think you posted this twice now that your knot is a shedder. Happens, but very rarely with Shavemac knots. In all the years I use their knots, and I have used a lot of their knots, I had one shedder that was replaced by me for my customer and Shavemac replaced the knot for me. You may want to contact them and have them send a knot for your brush with my next order, I would change it for you.
Thank you for the offer. I will ask him about it. That is a very nice offer by you by the way. I appreciate it very much.
I would just replace it myself with a different knot but i just dont know what would be best to put in it or who to get it from, any suggestions.?
It depends what loft you're going with the brush. My Shavemac pure with a 24mm/48mm knot is scratchy and stiff brush but i also have one other Shavemac with a 22mm/54mm knot and it barely has any scratch at all but it also doesn't have much backbone. It still works like a charm when face lathering but if i get another one at some point i will definitely get a little shorter lofted.
question for you what do you think of a Maggard Razors 22mm Timberwolf Synthetic knot in the handle we were talking about?
okay thanks i looked at it because i have the opportunity to get that particular knot for about 8 bucks and was really trying to find out if you thought that would be a good one for it but since you said you hadn't used that knot i will have to check more...also do you think a 23 mm knot would be better for this brush as i can get one of that size for about the same price?
I just refinished a vintage EVEREADY handle and put in a 24mm Gray Smoke knot. I can’t compare it to the Timberwolf, but I’m very impressed with the smoke knot. It might be my favorite face lathering brush.
