What's the loft height in the yellow handle ????
I've ordered the 26mm black fibre red handle brush, which should touch the British shores in ten days or so. However, I strongly suspect this black fiber knot to be the same as the Maggard one (which I had in my possession); if so, it has a little less backbone than the Tuxedo (to me), which is more suitable to my taste (the actual Yaqi's Tuxedo a wee bit too much backbone to my taste).
You could easily test that by comparing a well broken in boar brush with a good synthetic; the boar retains much more water, in my opinion. If you overload a synthetic, the water just leaks out.Anyone tried to "scientifically" define the term water retention then measure and compare results between different knots: A thesis on how differences in water retention will effect loading of brush and lathering in practice
...If you overload a synthetic, the water just leaks out...
Virginia Sheng, inspired by Yaqi for sure, is starting to pay more attention to handles.

Neither has enough to be bothersome in my experienceQuestion to the tuxedo and plissoft owners. Which one has more "springyness"? I mean the annoying property of the fiber bouncing back like a spring? I may make a 2nd order from Yaqi and trying to figure out if it's worth to order tuxedo too, since i try to stay below the 22 EUR ceiling, cause beyond that, you risk customs fee and VAT here.
