New 'pure bliss' knot from apshaveco

Just saw they released a new knot. I won't guinea pig this one but hopefully someone can let us know how it performs and if it's worth buying.

Just ordered a 24mm in one of the new Clear Burnt Amber handles. We'll see how it performs next week or so.

Bump, eagerly awaiting a review on this! I’ve got my eye on one

Just arrived. Both have the new Pure Bliss knot. Dry reaction - soft like a tuxedo but more backbone. Maybe a softer G5C.

I used the 99-4 last night. Probably simplest impression is a softer G5A with more backbone. Seems to pick up and hold water/lather a little better than the G5A. All things equal I'd probably pick the Pure Bliss. I did a face lather, tonight I'll see how it bowls.
