I’m not necessarily an impulse buyer, but I saw your brush and immediately ordered the badger. Now, tell me a bit about the knot feel!?

It is well and densely equipped and therefore has a good backbone. Due to the heavy handle, it is clearly rear-heavy. I enjoy it. It works well on the spread, however it will still take a while until it is really good. On first lathering you could smell the badger but now practically nothing more. It is similar to the simpson chubby 2 manchurian but firmer, as the Simpson is a hybrid form and the helios is clearly a short bulb

The tips are nice and soft and very pleasant on the skin. I suspect gel tips, but I am not sure.
