Wait is about a month.

To get it or before it ships? 

Thanks for the reply.

I didn’t wait much at all. I ordered on 10/2, shipped on 10/5 and got it 2 days later. Maybe it’s an abnormality but I was impressed.

Karve, or should I say, Chris, produces, in my opinion, very fine razors.  However his customer service is, at best, inconsistent and at worst, non-existent.  He may over promise and under deliver, but I don't think he has ever cheated anyone out of money.  Granted he does not measure up to a Timeless or Blackland when it comes to communication and service, but the tradeoff is - you get an excellent product at a very good price.

There are very few companies in any industry that offer Service, Price and Quality.  Most successful companies have two of these attributes, but not all three (yes, i know there are some exceptions).  We should all know by now what to expect when we place an order with Karve.  The point i am making is that Karve is what it is.  We can accept it and hope it changes or move on to another vendor.  Just my opinion.

Im looking at getting a Karve SS complete razor from the company, if I can't find a BST deal. 
On their website they look available, are they in stock or just pay then wait until it gets made/shipped ?

Click on the „shipping advisory“ banner at the top of the start page. Current lead time is apparently 1 week. Judging by what some people have been saying, this could be realistic.

  Oh yeah I didn't click that before. That's not bad, if realistic.

Word of caution, in stock to Chris only means that the parts have been ran and are waiting to be finished!! It would seem that finishing is not his strong suit. Remember also, the Ti razors were supposed to be finished and shipped back in May originally and they are still in production!! Probably won't see the light of day until summer 2021...

Ah,   yeah  that could be a wait wait situation.  
    Slow deal on the TI, so it sounds.

Lead time is the time it takes to get „in stock“ items out the door.

Ti is a different kettle of fish and, incidentally, is also not listed as being in stock.
