Hi all,
Been looking at some reviews of the original Somerset Simpsons Chubby 2. I noticed that its handle is a slightly different shape to the newer Vulfix Chubbies I've had.
Basically, the Somerset handle tapers inwards going down to the middle of the handle, where the Vulfix ones I've seen are much squarer (parallel) and the rounded corners are smaller. Hard to describe. I'll try and find some pics.
Anway, I went to Trumpers today and had a look at their own-branded Simpsons. I was very surprised by the variation in the brushes in the shop! Two Chubbies I picked up had different handles as described above. Both were Vulfix made from what I can tell, with the engraved lettering and not the lamp black.
So... what's going on here? Vulfix attempting the older Somerset handle shape (hoorah, I prefer it). Sample variation? One made to Trumpers' spec?
