Simpson Colonel X2L vs CommodoreX3

The Colonel is a classy shape but in my opinion the handle on the Commodore is much more ergonomic.

That sharper corner at the base of the handle of the X2L doesn't scream out 'squeeze me".

Same. I ordered my T3 on Friday and there were 8 left. They are selling quick @ $119.

A Colonel was one of my first brushes and one of my least expensive Simpsons. It will always have a spot in my rotation. Amazing brush for $50 IMO.

They had 13 for a long time, now they're selling quick. Maybe this forum discovered them

I ordered a Tulip T3. Alrossa on Amazon only had 3 left, I had to order one Colonel will be next.

I received my T3 today. I really like the handle I think it was money well spent. Chubby 2 feel too big and Duke 2 is too small. this one feels just right!

Cool. Mine still hasn’t shipped yet. Everything I order from Amazon US seems to sit for a week before it ships. Weird. My Emperor 3 Super arrived today after 10 days or so.
