Not yet, but the next order will be the new ones.And then Andrew (AP Shave Co) just received delivery of the 30% plant based STF knots. He reports that they're quite a bit denser. I think Rudy has them as well.

Yes sir, I told him if he drops some Yeti themed handles I am in trouble.. then he had to drop one that was named "Abominable".. I am not a strong man... purposely avoided the drop time to see if it was fate if it was leftover later last night.Rob does have some really nice handles available in this drop...
Interesting, I just purchased one from him about a month ago... do you know if these were the new ones, or did he literally just get new ones? I wonder how different it is than the one I have now.And then Andrew (AP Shave Co) just received delivery of the 30% plant based STF knots. He reports that they're quite a bit denser.

I don't. You might be want to ask in this thread.Interesting, I just purchased one from him about a month ago... do you know if these were the new ones, or did he literally just get new ones? I wonder how different it is than the one I have now.
Thank you for sharing, think I have my answer!
Not yet…supposed to be delivered next week or so. Will have both the plant and original for people to choose from on the website (clearly labeled) once they arrive!And then Andrew (AP Shave Co) just received delivery of the 30% plant based STF knots.

I’ve asked the same question to muhle, originally requesting a 27mm knot. That idea got shot down for the time being, but they have offered me a knot with 20% extra density. Should be coming with my plant based STF shipmentHello everyone!
I really like the muhle STF fiber and I have two brushes with this fiber. Would anyone knows why brushes with this fiber are not dense? Is there constraint from adding more fibers?

I like the idea of more dense, and (perhaps) raising the loft by 2-3mm.I’ve asked the same question to muhle, originally requesting a 27mm knot. That idea got shot down for the time being, but they have offered me a knot with 20% extra density. Should be coming with my plant based STF shipment
Yes same diameter - 23mm and 25mm.Hello! So these new brushes should have the same diameter but more dense?
Yes same diameter - 23mm and 25mm.
Yes correct!Thank you for your answer. Seems like a good idea to get more dense brushes. Just to be sure I understood: you will have two kinds of plant based knot, the first one with a density similar to the previous one (non plant based), and another one (also plant based) with 20% more density?
Yes correct!
I do agree, I never understood why people want dense, overstuffed brushes so much. Makes no sense to me. The STF's are just perfect!My opinion on Muhle going to a more dense version of the STF would be a mistake as the current offering has probably more backbone than I like and more density would just add to that and make it an unusable knot for me... I want a brush that doesn't fight me when I want to splay it and the current offering already does enough of that.

Good point guys. I let my enthusiasm get the best of me.I do agree, I never understood why people want dense, overstuffed brushes so much. Makes no sense to me. The STF's are just perfect!
Higher loft and more density, I would say it can be qual to more volume, more pillow effect, more pleasure, without necessarily be stiffer.What would be the point unless you wanted a stiffer brush?
