I have some tie bar ties. I think they are just fine, and about 99% of anybody you do see will not know (and will not care) if they are not self tipped and are not 7 fold ties. I tie FIH, Windsor, and Christensen knots with no problem. Most of my ties are BB and Borelli (Borelli ties are quite thick, as well) and I find the tie bar ties are lower quality, but then the Toyota Tundra has 4 more horsepower than a Nissan Armada. BFD-it's not as if the tie bar ties are thin, cheap, printed horrors from K-Mart-they are nice ties, nicely done.
Agreed on the 2.5" tie widths. I think the Brooks Brothers slim ties are the perfect width-two and seven-eighths inches wide, and the quality is pretty good. Could do with a greater variety, but that's what Sam Hober is good at-what you want, how you want it. Will be pinging Dave next.
