    I'm newish to the sport, but my Shavemac 177 (custom 20mm knot, 45mm loft), is an utterly fantastic brush. I highly recommend them. I also have a Rooney Heritage stubby 2, and I think the Shavemac is a better performer, actually. Very good value for money.

    Shavemac are dreamy-soft tipped brushes. High quality for sure, not mass produced stuff. Berndt cares about his product.

    Not sure of my exact model of mine but it looks like the 44140 you linked to there, I got it with the extra dense hair option and my initials engraved on the base, it is a great brush dense but soft but the handle is very heavy if I put it in a mug/bowl and there is room it will fall down so it can be quite messy. I haven't had any problems with the brush at all hasn't lost a hair.

    No problem dealing with Bernd who runs Shavemac either, however there has been times when he does go on vacation where he don't check his e-mail for a week or even longer (which for some people today it is unheard of) and unfortunately it appears he don't have a backup to answer them but the rest of the time he generally responds within a day or two.

    Bern @ Shavemac IMHO.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Agreed. I don't think you'll go wrong.

    Thanks for all the feed back everyone, currently i have the cheap boar brush from walmart and the tweezerman. Ive really been wanting to add a silvertip to my collectiron. Im just having a hard time deciding what i want...the custom setup is pretty cool, you can create you brush. But im afraid it may not be as high of quality as the different models that are already out
