I watched some videos and read some reviews and most say it's more backbone/scratchy. I need softer. have you tried Simpson synthetic?I will probably travel down the Wald road at some point but have traveled down the STF road and have to say I wasn't impressed by it!! I think it is more that I'm not impressed with the handle but I'm not sure the knot would open up to what I'm used to with my TNS synthetics. I've not had many problems making a very usable lather but the knot just seems to have too much backbone for me and don't see it loosening up much at all if any. To sum it up is to say it's no where near what most seem to label it as I reach for my Quartermoon, Angel Hair, and Timberwolf much more often!!
