I think there's only one style -- unlike hex keys, bristols vary in
number of "teeth" or splines according to diameter, so small ones only
have four, bigger ones, six, etc.  They are referenced by number, like
#8, #10, which are commonly found, though the #N has nothing to do with
the spline count.

Mark -- are you saying that you have same-sized bristols with 4's and
6's?
