I pulled the trigger on one brush and two knots of the 22mm Pur-Tech synthetic knot. It arrived very quickly from China (one week).
For the two knots I reused a VDH handle (green) and a long handle that had a very bad boar knot.
I have to say, I like these knots a lot. Very soft with great backbone and whip up awesome lather, faster than anything I have. I dont have tons of brushes but do have badger and boar. My favorites have been a WD 24mm silvertip set at 50mm and a Semogue 1800 (love the backbone). I have yet to try the long handle one but I think it will be perfect for bowl lathering. For the price, highly recommended. On thing to note is that the knot will not bloom, so if you like a larger circumference you may need to go with a 26mm or a 28mm. I dont think virginiasheng sells those but FrankShaving apparently does.
