The Local Grade is excited to be the singular online carrier for the Secret Brush Shop! Secret Brush Shop (SBS) is headquartered in Boone, NC and handmakes some of the finest boars hair climbing brushes around. Each brush utilizes the finest rhododendron hardwood, sourced from the same ridges and mountains as your favorite Appalachian crags and boulderfields. Every branch is hand selected from “standing deadwood” so that no rhododendron is ever harmed in the process. SBS brushes are pruned, carved and whittled, shaped and sanded, painted and clear coated, and bristles applied, all in-house and by hand.
Think of Meemaws clothspin but with the aethetics of papaws most prized pocketknife, equipped with the ability to bring fantastic friction to your longstanding project. Benchmark brushes are loaded with boarshair, shaped to fit into whatever chalkbucket you use, and have a clip carved into them that allows the brush to sit on the rim or lip of your chalk bucket or webbing on your bag or harness (or wherever you wanna carry them). These are some of our favorite brushes we make!
