Hello fellow wet shavers!!
The journey upon the road of wet shaving has been a delight! Along the way, I have acquired some great brushes--particularly the Duke 3. However, I have an idea that I would like to try the luxurious, pillowy-softness of the Simpson super badger hair. I'm strictly a face latherer (for now) and I love the size of the Duke 3. Seems to me that the Chubby 1 has similar dimensions to the Duke 3 (same loft and similar knot size). For those who currently have the Chubby 1 in Super and Duke 3 or for those of you who have tried both, can you give me your opinion comparing the 2 sizes and your overall experience with both brushes? Thank you all so much!
P.S. I am open to suggestions for other brushes that are similar in size to the Duke 3, but have an extremely soft feel (without being floppy). I cannot stand to have any scratchy feel from the brush...bleh (one reason I abandoned my only boar brush, an Omega).
