After a string of dissapointing purchases, my recently aquired inexpensive Yaqi synthetic has been a real surprise. The 24mm knot, which has a glue bump of 20mm leaving a free loft of only 25mm is more dense than my 24mm and 26mm RR Plissofts with a softer face feel yet more backbone. It's performance hits a sweet spot for me. I purchased this brush primarilly for the handle and intended to re-knot with the AP Tuxedo or 'Black Mag', however the knot just works so well and has terrific face feel. The handle is not as ergonomic as I would have hoped; everything else...all good...
Thanks for pointing this out...it is a 24mm Knot with a 45mm loft. The glue bump is 20mm leaving a free loft of 25mm...Greetings
Maths is not my strong point but you have lost me with the glue bump and loft dimensions! Surely that is not what you meant to say.

Fiore & Frutta Almond ...@ajc347 - any suggestions/tips?
I think I'm just used to softer soaps! I've got nice, soft water here also so I don't think ta be down to a water hardness issue. I think bowl lathering is easier for a tougher soap like this but I'll persist for sure!I found it lathered pretty easily when I bowl lathered with it. I am blessed with very soft water where I live, so that may be a factor.
I'd definitely try blooming it, using a wetter brush and loading the brush until it won't hold any more soap. That should help with whipping up a good lather in a bowl.
Let me know how you get on.
