Hi Shane, the leaves have dropped and the turkey is getting ready to go into the oven… Any update on the Blackbird Ti’s Fall return?  Smile

We're deep into production and we'll announce the restock date soon, likely along with a short pre-order period. The plan is to release the Blackbird Ti on our new website so I need to finish that first.

So I bought one used, loved it for a week, decided it was too light in weight and sold it. Regretted that and bought another used. Didn't like it much for the first few shaves, and then started liking it a lot. The conclusion I've come to, based on experience with the Ti Wolfman, and the Ti Muhle, is that your Ti Blackbird would be perfection if it had a long handleCool

It takes time to adjust to a new razor, often a couple weeks or more. No long handle on the horizon for Blackbird Ti currently.

I also sent the razor to Razor emporium. I only paid $37.5 for polish with discount code. And got very good result.
The razor slides much smoother on my face.

Snagged a Polished Ti Blackbird yesterday. I’m hoping to have it anodized at some point, make it a BlueBird  Big Grin.

Nice, I thought I could resist yesterday, but conveniently failed today. Been eyeing this razor for a long time, really looking forward to it.
Machine finish. You?

I have a Yuma still. It was my daily driver for 3 years back in the day. Best $1.50 ever spent on a razor. I'm a Ford guy  Happy2 Actually had an offer to buy one but I'm not willing to pay the premium over new they wanted and they were the second owner........... I'd like to get one but they're pricey enough without a $25 premium. I'm in no hurry, I'll wait......
No Blackbird today . Yuma and its rich Polish cousin.
