Maggard Razors 28mm SHD (Super High Density) Two Band Badger, Fan Knot

This knot continues to impress me. I have tried over 100 brushes including some of the best such as brushes from The Varlet, Declaration (b5-b8), all the Simpson hair options, all Brad Sears hair options, all Morris and Forndran hair options including pre Sears collabs, many Paladins etc... More often than not I prefer Maggard SHD brushes over my other brushes. These knots are exceptional. They are very soft and I believe one of the best characteristics of the Maggard SHD is the flow through and ability to hold onto a large amount of lather. I find this 28mm knot to shine at a 50mm loft. I would recommend to those who prefer substantial backbone that the loft be lower. Possibly 46-48mm but I am not one of those people so I cant be sure. As one of the reviewers also said, this Maggard SHD knot is in my top 3 favorite badger knots.

Maggard's SHD badger knot is instantly in my top 3 favorite badger knots. The 28mm knot blooms into a behemoth, which feels much larger due to its fan shape and hair density. The hairs have ultra-soft white tips that gel on first use. When set to Maggard's recommended loft, this knot has enough backbone to provide a very light scrub that is quite pleasant thanks to the soft hair and gel tips. Fantastic dense and pillow-soft badger knot. Easily worth the asking price and then some.

If money was no object I would change all my knots to this one !!!! Probably the best knot in the business super dense, all white tips and gelled up for days this is my new go to knot by with confidence your won’t regret it
