Damn, been out for a while now. Missed this diamondback ti drop. Was the preorder it? Or will there be more for sale.

Apparently, yes.
But the introductory price of $260 or so will be set at $350

Fixtures are arriving next week at YPM, Andy will hopefully have an update for us soon.

For anyone afraid of missing after the drop, don’t be. He will have another run after. This should not be a limited run razor.

Skimmed the article and what Im getting from it is that fixtures comprise the specialised machinery, moulds or
attachments needed to complete a customised task.

Does this mean the machining of the razors has not yet begun?

Not sure what to make of it...but perhaps my read of the situation is incorrect.

Out of interest, anyone know how many razors are planned for this first phase?
They seemed to sell out pretty quick and I just guessed it might be around 50.

Jake is going to be very busy machining Ti razors. The release of his Ti winning razor is at around the same time.

You could run a few hundred razors in 2 days with the Dback handle and that is in a one shift (7.5-8 hour a day shop). If you ran two shifts and had a 4 axis lathe, you could probably make several hundred in a day.

Looks like Jake already started making the handles for the Ti Dback (or is about to). He mentioned it on his latest youtube vlog.
