Thank you sir.
The knot is a unique knot.
It's basically an extra dense 2 band.
This one is 36mm in diameter and I have yet to measure the loft.

Many months since I've dusted off the Palmolive and as usual was easy to lather and gave a great result with a good smooth finish from a great razor. Happy days

Wednesday 1st February 2017
Pre Shave: Hot Shower, Bulldog Face Wash and Proraso Red
Razor: Gillette Slim (4)
Blade: Iridium Super (#1)
Brush: Plisson Pure Badger
Cream: Proraso Blue
Post: Alum Block, Cold water and Thayers unscented
AS: Lucido
First shave with the Iridium Super, while not as good so far as the Polsilver Stainless it was better than I remember the Polsilver SI being. End result was perfectly good and no irritation, once I have finished with this blade I must try Polsilver SI again as they can't be that different.
ej89, polsilver #2, 48 pro, sir irisch moos cream and a/s, bialy jelen balm
have seen the ej on lots of sotd pictures recently so decided to dust it down and use it again. excellent razor - why i decided i needed another dozen razors i'll never know............
