I'm looking for some advice from you seasoned brush veterans regarding some AP Shave brushes.
I really enjoyed my shave with the Wild West Brushworks brush I got from Russ @RussellR5555 and it's a 24mm cashmere knot. This has a lower glue bump than my Chinese synthetics. I quite fancy a larger cashmere to join my collection having enjoyed the softness. I can't bring myself (yet) to spend big on synthetic brush so another Wild West or similar is out of the question. I do like the look of the AP brushes though. The two I'm looking at in particular are:
30mm Cashmere with Summer Handle:
28mm SynBad with Winter Handle:
Does anyone have any experience with these knots they can share?

The newest knot in the APShaveCo collection - the SynBad knot! I had two goals with this knot 1) getting the closest imitation to badger in appearance yet and 2) providing consumers with a knot that had a great splay. This knot solves the problem many have with the Tuxedo not being able to splay...
