I could have made some juvenile remark like " I got a chubby over the Chubby" but I'm too adult for that right?
Anyways, this replaced my poor lost 56 that disappeared recently in our move. Its got a great knot and the Best Badger is perfect combo of wonderful softness with just the backbone you need for your lather and to work up your skin. I have never felt the Super Badger but honestly, I can't see how it could be much better than the Best Badger bristles and the extra duckets. The handle on the Chubby 1 is ...chubbier (of course) than the 56 and lacks the length which made bowl lathering great with the 56. The Chubby 1 is usable in a shallow bowl but the short grip area means it excels in a face lathering application. Make no mistake though ,that with my steel lather bowl it is workable but definitely the Chubby 1 was designed as more of a face tool.
