@donnie_arko 6-8mm glue bump on the T3 and T2. I've used that range to allow for some of my measuring inaccuracy
Well, I swallowed the "lure" and ordered a new brush with his new SilkSmoke 26mm Fan/Flat Top knot set to 12 - 13mm per an e-mail chat with him regarding splay needs. I have never really suffered from BAD, I just wanted a new synth fan/flat top style to replace the Tuxedo one I sold to a buddy two years ago and sorely missed and this "new" knot seems to be just the ticket. We shall see.
26mm SilkSmoke™ Synthetic Knot - Fan/Flat Top Hybrid
Premium Synthetic Shaving Brush Knot packed with Extra Dense synthetic hair. Note: this knot tends to run a little small! (about -0.5 to -1mm)apshaveco.com
Please report back when you have had a chance to use it for a while. I've been eyeing a ApShaveCo brush and might pull the trigger when things get back to normal as I imagine delivery times aren't the best right now.
i bought a 2BED brush from them very recently and delivery was less than a fortnighti was pleasantly surprised
Elaborate if you will please on the performance of this knot against other synths if possible.
to be honest i struggle to do a critique on a brush, the 2BED is really nice though. its quite full on the face and soft, i think the density of it gives it a bit of backbone and it splays well. i have synbad brushes and really like them, ill use one back to back with the 2BED sometime to give me a better idea of the differences

Thanks for the info, and please update us when you are more familiar with it.
Martin, I went back and read all the posts in case I missed it, but are you a face or bowl latherer?
