Here are my Simpsons synthetics.
Trafalgar 1 Sovereign bristle
Duke 3 Platinum
Chubby 2 Sovereign
M7 Platinum
Despite the price size shape density and bristle grade differences, all are equally and highly effective, superior to badger in every way.
I find the Sovereign bristle softer. The Chubby is not really a lather hog nor does it feel too big, unlike its badger counterpart. I think the Ch3 Sovereign would be wonderful and I might just get it.
The T1 is a fraction of the price of the others. It is just as effective, but the loft is less dense and the handle is much lighter, almost feels hollow. It’s not really a problem although a weighty handle does part of the work for you. I wouldn’t mind at all if the T1 was my only brush, can’t say I’d be missing out really.
