That colouring really looks like a Beagle. Or an Australian Shepherd Dog. Handsome brush. So happy for everyone!The Beagle has landed again! The courier called me back this afternoon as he happened to be driving by, and he dropped it off.
It's beautiful! Thanks so much again to the organizers.

I have to say I'm not the most avid face latherer so my experiences are limited. That being said the brush works as intended. A very slight badger funk but nothing serious. Good scrub and flow through. With slight pressure it opens up a bit and creates a nice scrubby cushion with no scritch. The handle besides having a gorgeous intensiv color fits my hand like a glove, even a bit better then the G3 Eagle in the pic above.
The knot holds a ton of water so this I have to manage a bit better next time. Creating lather was still no issue at all as I just loaded a bit more to compensate.
Mild razor and a blade on the bottom end of sharp allowed only for a CCS shave as I didn't want to force it.
Many thanks to the organisators of the group buy, I'm a happy camper
I agree with everything you said!While I can't wait for ours to arrive here in North America, it makes me happy to see our European brothers being the first to get their brushes. I can't imagine how difficult it is for them to see so many great opportunities limited to CONUS ONLY here on B&B. And they never complain about it- they understand what a hassle it is logistically and economically to ship things in and out of the USA, particularly badger hair. Fair play to them. Enjoy your Beagles, men!
I ordered the Black/Brown, but that Butterscotch is one good looking brush. Enjoy!just a quick pic - more to follow later in the day including a SOTD @Owen Bawn @old_school

Yes and the thread post is rather short for whatever reason.Does that Tech say MADE IN FRANCE on the bottom plate?
Thanks, Shavemac is calling it caramel I would say it’s a straight yellow compared to the SOC butterscotch that is a deep orange.I ordered the Black/Brown, but that Butterscotch is one good looking brush. Enjoy!
