I believe the original announcement was there were to be no polished anything until further notice and there may be a special run on polished in the future...

 It appears to me he is making the transistion to satin finish as it is beautiful without the constant polishing necessary to look good. Next (IMHO) will be the Vector. Bottom line probably cheaper to do satin.

Polished or satin, is Shane planning on an OC option for the Ti Blackbird razor ? I'm not following developments as carefully as I once did, and if he announced that I missed it.

First shave this morning with the Ti OC was great. In fact the OC version weights less then the CC  51grams vs 54grams

No current plans for polished yet, but we’re trying to figure it out. It’s less about cost since we’d just charge more and it’s more about the results. We just don’t love the results we’re getting with polished titanium and it’s a massive PITA. I’m hoping we can improve the process and bring back that finish at some point.

How about a long handle?

Unlikely, but possible eventually.
