What Brush is their BESt, Worst, and Why?
I do not currently own any, but I have used a few...

The Atomic Rocket (26mm) was, from my memory, a good brush. Medium backbone and pretty soft bristles from my memory.

Additionally, I used to have the Phoenix Green Ray (24mm), which is quite soft with very little backbone. Cashmere-esque.

Finally I have and still use a 26mm PAA Stygian hybrid knot I set in a handle of my own. It's mid to low backbone, probably on par with the Rocket. It's soft with a bit of scrub. Barely any, really, but noticeably more than something as soft as the Green Ray or an AP cashmere, so I mention it.

Just for reference purposes, so you can possibly gauge how my opinion would relate to your own ... I am a fan of softer knots with a good easy splay. I like the Cashmere, Tuxedo, or TnS Quartermoon.

My favorite PAA brush is the "Peregrino". Very soft but with good backbone. Nice handle size and shape as well.
