Omega 63185

Anybody out there own this (yeah, probably a stupid question)? The only other badger hair brush that I have is a Muhle HJM best badger. I am a bowl latherer and I use mostly soaps. I don't "need" this brush but I just really like the handle for some reason. Does she perform well? Is it stiff enough for harder soaps? I do not use the HJM very often because it's just not quite stiff enough for my soaps, but it works very well with arko . Thanks for any information/advice. Oh, here is the brush I am talking about just in case...

Allan-I have one of his brothers, the 6192. Same knot, different handle. The black badger has more scritch and does well both on the face and in a bowl with creams and soaps.

I have no experience with this brush. Omega makes this handle with a boar knot. I have heard of complaints from users with the durability on the finish of the handle.
