I purchased the yaki cavern lake tuxedo 24mm synthetic and the yaki 30 barberpole handle synthetic brushes and I have noticed that the yakis knots look smaller than my other synthetic brushes with 24mm and 30mm knots from west coast shaving, apshaveco, and phoenix artisan accountments. is the reason for this that yaki sets their knots lower to give the more backbone? the 24mm tuxedo knot on the cavern lake brush looks tiny compared to my PAA synthetic brushes with 24mm knots. I was wondering if anyone else noticed this with yaki synthetic knots compared to other brands that make synthetic shaving brushes.
