The Beagle- A Group Buy Brush

[Owen Bawn]

We'd like to introduce The Beagle, a group buy hand crafted brush made by our friend Bernd Blos at Shavemac. Inspired by brushes like the Simpson Eagle, the Paladin Moe, the Brad Sears Gus, and others, it features a handle that is, dare we say, voluptuous? It has a 22x46mm two band knot that is available in either a bulb or a fan. The handles are available in either butterscotch or in a black/brown- just like 4 legged beagles!

This is a relatively small brush- we were looking for something that would be the perfect face lathering brush, and we think we've found it.

The brush is being offered at a most reasonable price. The actual price will vary by country, based on exchange rates, the European VAT, etc. If your country is not part of the EU the VAT will magically disappear at checkout. All transactions will be directly between you, the buyer, and Shavemac. Shavemac have opened a special page just for this group buy. That link is below. You may order your brush(es) there.

I'm just the spokesman here... the real work on this group buy was done by @old_school and @BigJ and special thanks to our team of B&B moderators for advice and counsel.

So here's the link and a screenshot of what the page will look like. If you make a purchase, let us know by posting in this thread. Enjoy!

Bernd didn't feel the need to put a time limit on it, nor did he limit the number of brushes he'd be willing to make. That said, it probably won't go on forever...

Splendid! This should give me the necessary amount of time to convince SWMBO I need another brush!

Oh, sure, I'd say you've got till after supper anyway.

Anyone want to take a shot at how Owen Bawn came up with Beagle? The easy part is in his poetry.

Those brushes sure are purdy!
I have a Shavemac 24mm 2-band and it's a pure joy to use.

Shavemac has a sterling reputation around here. That's one of the reasons we went with him. And you know, I bet using a 22mm 2.band Beagle would actually add to the overall joy in your life!
