Karve Shaving Co. A new DE Brass razor to market.

Soooo much belly aching in this thread. Like none of you have other razors to use in the meantime. I get it, it sucks to wait that long to get something you paid for already, but YOU WILL GET THE RAZOR. It's not a scam to take your money and not deliver a product. Can we move on from pummeling this long dead horse already?? Karve wait times have been long SINCE THE BEGINNING. If you went into this thinking otherwise I don't know what to tell you. I ordered mine when they first were released and it took a month to get to me. Was I worried? No, because I already knew it would take that long. I have many other razors that I used until then. It's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, think about it...

wyze0ne completely agree. But how bout one thing. Just say a razor is out of stock. Rather than keeping dollars for 6 months. Just say out of stock and release 50 at a time. I do websites and this is not a hard option to change. Takes about 10 minutes on a website design. They’ve done it with their brushes and bowls, why not say “ out of stock”

That's a damn good question woody.

agreed.

Does anyone know when the Aluminum Karve is going to be back in stock to order? I want one so bad.

I don’t think anyone knows at the moment, including people at Karve....
They’ve been asked several times recently, on Instagram, etc, and all they usually say is “working on it” or “soon”....
Sounds like the only step in the manufacturing of the aluminum razor which is not done in house by Karve is the anodizing, and at the moment they haven’t found an external anodizer whose work they’re happy with.
Last time I saw something on Instagram was middle of February when they said they had sent some test batches to different anodizers, nothing since.

Interestingly, today they had a photo of a Titanium razor they are apparently testing....
Which I guess it’s great, as lots of people would like one, but at the same time I was under the impression that they’re still struggling to catch up with SS orders, especially the polished ones, as discussed in several posts here...

Wow !! To think that if I had not changed my order from polished to standard SS I'd still be waiting for my Nov 29, 2019 order !! 

Scandalous that this guy is working on other projects when he has all of these paid for unfulfilled orders !!!

Was the photo of the titanium razor on their Instagram or some where else? I was just on their instagram and didn’t see it. I’m curious about it, as there was certainly a point in time when I couldn’t wait to see Karve’s CB razor in titanium... But despite my interest and curiosity, I took a stand to no longer buy from Karve.

The titanium is intriguing. But at this point, you’d have to be a complete idiot to put up the money and know there’s no set date you’ll be receiving it.

The George R R Martin of razor-making.

on one of the forums someone mentioned they emailed them about aluminum and the ETA was 4-6 weeks.
