What SB did you use today?

RR Bruce.

The more I'm using these Plisson types, the more I'm noticing the scritch and pokey-ness. The tuxedo knots are really superior in my opinion. I wish those were more readily available.

Yes, this! As soon as I got my Tuxedo, Cashmere and Maggard black synthetics, I don't use the Plissoft style ones anymore. I noticed the same thing. The unfittingly named Ubersoft is even worse IMO. Today I used the Cashmere.

Jeff,

How to you like your Cashmere? I've been thinking of getting one. I seem to be going synthetic full time as I don't use my badgers much or boars at all.

Thank you,

John
