Are these brushes different?

[johnjim242]

So after a long search, I find "plissson/ft" brushes are my favorite. I am using a Maggards but I hate the way it looks and I don't like the way the handle feels. I just want to know because the knot tip color is much whiter, is this Yaqi brush still the plissoft type?

It will feel and perform similar to the Plissoft, perhaps a bit denser. I like the coloration compared to the Plissoft. They use it in a few other handle styles as well.

Razorock has some good plissoft options. I find the Bruce and the Barber handles very comfortable.
