It has soft tips, great backbone, and a natural splay.  The only complaint I have with the regular ST-1 is that the SHD version performs better. HC\u0026amp;C and I experimented and found a way to set the knot to match SHD performance with the regular density knot.\"\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e- Tobin Fetters \/ Tobin's Throwbacks\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are introducing our new knot, The Dragon Slayer\/ST-1.  This knot  functions as though it were a blend of fibers from the Muhle STF and the Simpson in some ways.  What makes this knot unique is that it has back bone and splays well. There is no floppy feeling with this knot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith HC\u0026amp;C you get a larger knot with greater density (due to being hand tied).  Plus, it's set in a super cool handle with a lower price.  What's not to love?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDid we mention that it's hand tied?  Benefits of hand-tied knots include the ability to include more fibers, thus increasing density as well as allowing for better quality control.Even better, we figured out how to set these knots so you get super high density knot performance with regular density pricing. Tested and confirmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(This knot is the ST-1 from Oumo.  Like all our knots, the last part of the name is the manufacturers name.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe want to acknowledge the commitment to quality of Oumo Brush Company.  We are impressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knot features a bulb finish.  Fan is not available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize:  24mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight: 70mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufacturing Process:  This knot is hand tied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNOTE:  Most brush handles are drilled to a standard depth of 15mm.  This knot requires a knot drilled to a greater depth.  I don't want to sell this knot on our website until I have more time to work with them.  The reason for this is that the wonderful attributes of this knot are diminished if the loft is too high.  \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe cost of the knot is $25.48.  Reach out if you have a handle where you have measured and verified a greater depth and would like to purchase a knot.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"Hendrix Classics \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"24mm","offer_id":50083514155305,"sku":"sku-45761627029729","price":25.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"26 mm","offer_id":53228381667625,"sku":"sku-48445018046689","price":29.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0785\/9860\/3049\/files\/FuTgb-Photoroom.png?v=1742827654","url":"https:\/\/www.mancaveandapparel.com\/products\/the-dragon-slayer-st-1-24-26mm-synthetic-shave-brush-knot","provider":"Man Cave And Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
