Thanks Brian. It's my first GSC knot.

I have four G5C brushes. Absolutely awesome knots! You're going to enjoy it.

Thanks. That's what I'm hoping. It was the following blurb from AP Shave Co. that sold me on the knot:
The G5C features the following:
- Hair Fibers imported from Japan
- Great backbone. The stiffer Japanese hair gives you backbone more similar to natural hair than nearly any synthetic.
- Ultra soft tips, even softer than the G5A.
- First FAN shape knot in the G5 lineup. This allows for the most splay of the G5 lineup too.
- Fan shape allows for minimal glue bump
- Retains water in a more efficient manner than traditional synthetics (consistent throughout the G5 lineup)

@mrdoug, @Klinker , or anyone else that has used both, how would you compare the G5C to the 2BED from AP Shave Co.?

I really like the G5A SHD it’s pretty great but the G5C is close runner up.

An oldie but goodie... One of the early Trotter Handcraft brushes... A 24mm Eucalyptus handle.

A friend was downsizing his den and let me grab this from him. Super exciting! The picture absolutely does NOT do this brush justice. Paul way outdid himself with this one.

The 2BED knot has still yet to be set. Waiting to get the RTV silicone.

That’s fantastic! I had no idea eucalyptus had grain like that.

Great movie!

Thanks again to @Knothead for supporting the weight loss challenge and providing this beautiful Creamsicle brush handle as one of the prizes.
