I've used an Omega boar (10005?) with a wood handle for the last five years and it has worked well, but now I'm considering getting a second brush. How do the Plissoft brushes hold up? Is there another synthetic that works better?

The Razorock Plissoft is a good enough brush if you like soft and flexible fibres. I prefer something with a bit more backbone, like the Tuxedo knots used by Yaqi, or the Simpsons Chubby 2 synth, although the latter is a bit expensive. There are a lot of good synth knots around, but what's best for you depends on what characterustics you're after.
I have one of these as well that I purchased new after I started reacting to my animal hair brush and it's amazing. If it ever wears out, I'm buying another one.I have a BC Silvertip that I got on the BST for like $7 and it's my FAVORITE synthetic by far.
Even new they are under $20
