I've never touched an LV so I can't comment, but yeah, LL's coticule side can have quite a bit of variance.LaVeinette is always laVeinette. Les Lat coticule side is a gamble!

After using a LV for several weeks now, I would have to say as far as yellow coticule is concerned, IMO, the veinette is better than any piece of Les Lat that I have. Same results can be had with the LL coticule, but with the LV it is effortless. I love my les lats, but this LV is really something special.
I think they vary between the two layers, and within the layers themselves. Typically, there's two coti sides per hybrid, distinguishable according to Bart, by blue lines running parallel in the coti layer-a fast band and a slow band. I have both, and like them both. When I first got a regne les lat it had a very grainy feel to it and I assumed this was a trait of the new layer, but since then I've got an Ol preu LL that has the same grainy feedback. I strongly prefer the cream colored hybrid side of the LL's opposed to the ones with a yellow tint to them.
I experienced that the side with the blue hairlines is the fastest side which is also the side which feels finer and smoother...
I think its also the side i prefer more...this layer is much more preferable as beeing a old Ol Preu Layer then the ones quarried from Regne as you mention it here....
A bit pressure and 2-4 strokes the darkening starts, material is removed very fast...
thats the side i prefer, if you move directly from this side to the other one its like all the magic has gone...hard to describe but this is the fun making side
Hybrid in the middle:
No reason for you to hold on to that les lat any longer...Since y'all said they were better and therefore forced me to buy (two), I have to agree, nicest coti I have ever handled.
I shoulda seen that one comin'....No reason for you to hold on to that les lat any longer...
