Help w/ badger grade ID!

[vitaman]

I recieved this Acca Kappa badger from my Mother-in-law for my b-day. The packaging it came in says nothing about the grade. On the brush it says Acca Kappa "Puro Tasso". It seems to be constructed very well, and has a great look to it. Any help in IDing the grade of this brush would be very helpful!

Puro Tasso is "Rated Pure" in Italian, so my bet would be Pure badger Hair.

The hair holds a ton of water and this thing is softer than my C&E BBB. Also, this bloom was from one test batch. If it is "Pure" it's definately a good quality grade of "Pure".

Lovely looking brush Keith. From what I could see, the hair appears to be cyclindrical not tapered. More than likely a good grade of "PURE," as opposed to BEST, or SUPER, or SILVERTIP..
