Alright y’all for anybody sitting on the fence out there…time to send your order in!! 6 days left till close, let’s see if we can get this group buy to 50!!
Current count is at 37. 13 more, we can do this!!What is the current count?
And just so I'm 100% clear on what I may be ordering, this is the Shavenac Silvertip fan, right?
I'm asking because some fan knots look like a flat-top...this one looks more like a hybrid fan/bulb.

And yessir, I do believe that is the fan knot. I will let @Rudy Vey confirm that however.
Get in on this while you still can y’all!
Super helpful! Thank you!View attachment 1818121

This may help clarify….
These are all RV brushes. Note the differences between fan and bulb. Me? I’m a bulb guy but fan knots do have merit.

Yes, all the knots, badgers, in the pictures are fans, should have not cut off the top of the brush, so it looks a bit flat.... Shavemac bulbs are more rounded. The choice is fan or bulb.Thank you, but I'm still hoping Rudy will confirm that the brush pictured is indeed the fan.

Here is the same knot, just a different handle:

And here is a Shavemac bulb, my favorite brush:

I think this shows clearly the differences in the shape.
Most of these brushes are going to look familiar to this group because they might have been yours. All but the Simpson chubby 2 syn was bought off the BST.
Semogue boar, B&B boar, Plisson, Chubby 2, RV silver tip badger bulb.
Thinking the D01 fan would be a nice addition. What say you?
I am exclusively a bowl/scuttle latherer. View attachment 1815582
That is the B&B Essential Boar with a select knot from Omega.Offtopic..... but what color or edition is that B&B Boar?
I'm sure I saw that handle shape on several SOTD's and thought that's something that might work, so ordered one from Rudy. It really is a most comfortable handle.These may help a little.
The Shavemac 24mm in both bulb and fan. The bulb has more shaves on it (the fan isn’t really broken in yet).
I can tell you the fan is not a flat top in my opinion and the bulb is not a hybrid, it’s a bulb.
If they look familiar it’s the contributor handle from 2022 made by Rudy. I think I have 7-8 in that shape, love it!
