Morning GQC
We've been working with this brush now for about six months and it is by far my favourite brush.  Am I happy with the lightness? No. I would like it to be half the weight! but seriously the weight is fine, it's about 240gm which is a little bit heavier than a Bentley but as the bristles will last about 10 times longer, I think it's an acceptable trade-off.  For my taste, the splaying of the bristles is very good offering good corner coverage.  I'm going to include a picture of the bristle density on one of my prototypes. On the finished brush the bristles are in black with a black stock.
