    I have run the gamut of them and have found you get what you pay for. I, personally, only would consider the 2 banders and the grade A's as well as their boar knots, which are very good, IMO.
    High mountain White, eh? Do they have that in 30??

    I rest my case.

    Just got a finest, F2 and some finest, 2 bands. The F2 is one of the newer knots at TGN, and seems like a very nice knot. The tips are more gold then the grade A's and 2 bands. Not quite as scritchy as the 2 bands and not as tightly packed either, the 2 bands are as tight as they come. Still feels like a quality knot though. Not sure if I'll get to use this one. Actually making some lather with it will be the real test. Seems like a scritchy knot without the denseness of overstuffed hairs.

    26mm F2 on the left, 28mm 2 band on the right
