A Chubby 3 synthetic?

I asked if I could get a custom Chubby 3 Synthetic and the reply was:

Unfortunately we’re waiting on material coming in for the Chubby 3’s however we have been told this will be months rather than weeks.

So sounds a way off.

Yep, I was told the same thing, months not weeks for my Chubby 3 2band SiLVERTiP. I'm just hoping to get it by Christmas. lol

Beautiful, Jon.

Thanks David, I am really pleased with it. I think I need the Ruby one though.

Just emailed Simpsons to see if they can do a Major M1 with a synthetic knot

Yes .....I was lucky to get one back in Oct/Nov when they last had them for sale. Mine had the same fibre as the Trafalgar which I much prefer to the Premium fibre used in the CH2

SOTD from a couple of weeks ago

Ah yes, I’d forgotten about those. I am hoping for one with the premium fibres though.

Reply back from Simpsons, a Major in Synthetic is not an option at the moment. Oh well !

Really ended up liking the handle on this one.

Simply superb!

Looks like tortoiseshell, right? I always found that Simpson picks exceptionally nice and special tortoisehell. Here's my 2016 Chubby 2 Manchurian:

Although I strongly prefer faux ivory, faux antique ivory or butterscotch for my brush handles, I must say that I find Simpson’s tortoiseshell very compelling.
