AP Shave Gelousy SHD Badger

Recieved this knot recently and finally had the chance to use it the last two nights. Went with the 26mm Euro bulb SHD 2 Band. Only thing to compare against is several SHD 2 bands from Maggards in the same size. The euro bulb is a different shape that may grow on me. Cleaned the knot with the PAA cleaning block. Then did a couple test lathers. Do this with every new brush. First use seemed to really hog lather. I am a bowl lather guy. Used Zingari Man Wanderer. Tonight used a Sterling Lightish Red soap and made tons of rich lather. The AP knot is supposed to have gel tips. At closer inspection the tips don't really have any hooks. It has a slightly different feel than my other two band knots when wet. All in all, nice knot but jury is still out on whether I will get anymore gel knots. First pic is the AP Gelousy and the second is a Maggards for comparison on shape.
