Yes... by softness I am referring to the molded edges of the diamonds, and the contour of the edges. This material appears to be bakelite, and not paint, lacquer or some other thing added after the grips were molded. As you can see in the closeup, some of the diamonds are completely rounded, and shaped like teardrops.
You got quite a deal on a pair of original grips, even if mismatched.
