Got a new Omega Chunky Chub in the mail today from Shoebox. I had been wanting a boar to use a boar (other than a VDH) for soaps, and I've liked the looks of a chubby handle.
Tried it tonight. Arko Stick, face lather. Wonderful lather, will try it later with other soaps to see how they compare, but I wasn't fond of the chubby handle. I love the looks of it, but there wasn't enough there for me to hold on to. I had considered a rooney 1/1 or 3/1 in the past, knowing what I know now, I'd go with the 3/1. If anyone is looking at a brush with a "chubby" handle, I'd recommend them to try a cheaper brush to make sure it fits them.
