Yes, Wolfman can cause emotions. They are great razors but like a lot of modern stainless razors today they are programmed into a CNC machine.  None of these razors, Timeless included, are forged in a wooded gorge with a homemade fire roaring with misty mountains in the distance. Their just razors. Nice ones yes.

Speaking of which the Bronze does well with a new sharp blade. That mild razor, sharp blade combo which is really nice. I like Timor blades in this model.

Are you talking about the Feather AS-D2? There's no comparison with the .68mm (stainless); maybe the .34mm (bronze). The Feather probably beats all of them on mildness, but is also the least efficient. Now, if you shim it - it's a much better shave.

Well my time with the Bronze has ended. I enjoyed the shaves, but I prefer the .95 Scalloped and the Ti .95 OC. It's a beautiful razor and I'm sure for those who prefer a milder shave it will be a prized addition to their dens.

How much you selling for? Maybe buy for passaround if price right

It's heading back to Timeless HQ...

I'm still loving mine after a full week of shaves with it. Definitely mild. But I'm not quite sure I'd put it on par with the .68 (in any version) after all. It tends to not get quite close enough along the jawlines. Everywhere else it's pretty good. I'm going to try a Feather blade in it next (over the current PolSilver) and maybe try shimming it.

Popped in a fresh Feather blade this morning and,well, yeah... Not quite cutting it (literally). It wasn't as smooth as the PolSilver blade, and actually left more behind.

Next stop... Shimsville!

Man this is disappointing to read. Folks resorting to sending back razors and shimming them? Just a bit too mild gentlemen?

It is a beautiful razor but just too mild (inefficient) for my liking.
A very smooth shave but not long lasting.
A more aggressive base-plate would have made it a keeper for me.

That's disappointing. I was this ][ close to pulling the trigger on one of these.
