People admit it's ok to have different opinions, but I get labeled a douchebag, miserable, pathetic, and a butthurt fanboy who needs lube. Pot meet kettle.

I know I got off on the wrong foot, but I don't care. I see how it is, last you'll see from me around here anyway.

No, you weren't labeled a douchebag because of your opinion about Wolfman Razors. It was because of the way you attacked another member (in your first post here, mind you) calling him a t**t and stupid because of his opinion.

But I digress, I think the razor looks just fine. It would be nice to see some kind of texture on the handle though. It just looks slippery without being wet. If it shaves great, that's all that matters. I think it's nice to see Wolfman offering a lower cost, more accessible option myself, and I don't think it's a detriment to his brand's image at all.

I think we can all act like adults and discuss a razor without the name calling, yes? come on guys, it's a razor!!!!!

I wish James all of the success in the world with his new line. I can definitely see where wanting to put his extra machine and machinist to use is economically sound..it makes little sense to keep machinery turned off and not producing anything whatsoever when you have the tools and manpower available to make something happen.

since we're comparing cars here...most manufacturers have their economy cars and then they have their top-tier models and trim packages...this is what I liken his new line to. want a wolfman sooner rather than later? buy the guerrilla! want to wait a while or pay a high price to obtain one on the secondary market that's hand polished? go for it!!!

the market will decide if James' new decision is wise or not.

A Guerilla is an insurgent fighting an asymmetric battle against seemingly superior forces. I first heard the term associated with Fidel and thought GORILLAS were being trained to
enter combat much like K9 units. Scared the begeezus out of me until I studied physical Anthropology and met Coco, a large, powerful vegetarian with a sweet personality. Mozart
was literally kicked in his rear by a former patron's man servant throwing him out. Wolfgang was known to fail completing some commissions or tossing off a variation of previous work. I've heard examples and damn if I don't love both.

How did you purchase one if you don't mind me asking? I couldn't see it listed on his website.

I am glad someone else said it.  For me the Slim is just entirely to rough to use.  I have and keep one because it is a birth year razor but I absolutely hate the thing.

Not to derail the conversation, but I'm curious what makes the slim rough? Granted, I've only used mine maybe twice, as I greatly prefer the Fat Boy. I just assumed they shaved similarly. For reference, I use my FB on the 8 setting.

If anybody thinks ' hey, I can get a reply from James about Wolfmans with this email' uh, don't.
