YaQi 24mm 'Tuxedo' Synthetic


OK. It's just that a member of a French forum got a brush with the recent light brown knot (not sold yet on Yaqi boutique apparently) and he asserted that the fibre was different than the others.

I think it is this knot:

What do you mean by the galaxy Tuxedo? (is it the blue space brush?)

Yea the blue space brush with the Tuxedo knot. The knots that are sold on the Yaqi Alibaba site are wholesale with a minimum order of about 500 brushes. The Yaqi brushes on the aliepress tend to have the same knots. So yes they do have different fibers in some knots but they are not easy to come buy at the moment
 
My 24mm Yaqi finally arrived yesterday after I'd given it up for lost (a26mm ordered the same day arrived about 3 weeks ago and this one was lost in the Post Office cave somewhere?)

A much lower glue knot than the 26mm and the difference in splay is huge. I tried it on a puck f DR Harris last night and it performed reasonably? The 26mm is fantastic on OSP soap so I'll try it On that next
 

Agreed

Yaqi is calling it the 'Mu' knot, from what I've read its the same fibres as a tux just with a more natural colour scheme that emulates a 2-band badger knot aesthetically. I think they've nailed it, synthetic knots are usually so ugly compared to their natural hair counterparts but these looks great.
