Can anyone compare the qualities of Tony's Best and Finest knots? I need two small knots,a 16 and an 18 mm. The finest would look a little sharper in both, but I'm hoping for a little softer feel. I've owned a Finest (22mm set at 48), but not a Best. It was a little stiff for me.

Best is very scratchy and stiff, I do not longer use them. The Finest is great quality and I use these the most.
+4...nice thing about the finest grade is that the lower parts of the hair are thicker, adding stiffness, but the tips are so soft. Also gives you some room to play with loft until you find a sweet spot.
+5 on the Finest. No need to look further. Buy with confidence.

Thanks, gentlemen. The Finest is certainly a favorite...I should give it another chance. I'll try setting it up a little higher next time around to get a little more splay. Maybe that will help me find that sweet (softer) spot!
