Wolfman Open

I would love the opportunity to try out the new WR2 head but with very small purchase windows on random days that is not likely to happen until any time soon.

One other problem (if you can call it a problem) is once you get a razor, you better hope you chose wisely regarding blade gap because you will probably be SOL trying to swap or trade it for another gap.

That has actually not been my experience so much, at least with the wr1’s. Swapping gaps has always been accomplished in under a day when I’ve attempted. The market will reach that with the wr2’s as well eventually.

For me personally the former has been my experience. A good friend of mine loaned me his increased Blade Gap WR1, if it weren’t for him I’d have never been able to try one. The opportunity to purchase a Wolfman are so few and far between for me that when I did have the opportunity I was worried that I would select a Blade Gap that was too aggressive for my tastes and be stuck with a Razor that I couldn’t shave with. So the opportunities I have had to purchase one, I chose middle of the road .67 and .74 Blade Gaps. I’ve read everything I can about people’s experiences with them, but just as everything else in wet shaving YMMV. I loved the increased Blade Gap on my friends WR1, and got better results than with my .67 and .74 Blade Gaps. I’ve tried on several different occasions to swap for a larger gap, but I’ve had no success. The same thing happened to me with my WR2. I purchased a WR2 from the second release, before additional gaps were offered, and found the .95 far too inefficient for my tastes. I ended up selling my first WR2 to a friend for cost. I’m sure as time goes by it may become easier for people that network with one another to swap if they’re not happy with the results they’re getting from their Razors, but so far that has not been the case for me.

That’s a good point on the gaps hunter. There are far more .54-.74 wr1’s out there than .80 and above. I wouldn’t ever consider that high and never tried. So I guess my experience is with the caveat of being in the commonly purchased gaps

And yeah I think eventually folks looking to swap between .95 - 1.15 will be easy and common place. The .95 is decidedly mild and most folks know that. I’m sure if you weren’t such a stand up fella you could’ve tripled your money on the secondary market if you wanted

I think the market will support these prices for a bit but I don’t believe long term the market will support it, we’re already seeing a big decrease in Wolfman resale prices and competition in the high end DE razors is growing.

Absolutely +1
And, just my opinion for sure, the whole wet shaving world is becoming a real stupid game because of these facts (including too many releases & co). I'm sorry, but that's entirely our fault. (Crazy) People should start to rethink and give a value to their actions. (I have/had all the high end razors, soaps etc. - I'm saying this just to not do my statement sounds envious)

Timeless has cured my desire for a Wolfman. In fact, I’ve had such luck with the design and it’s such a good fit for my face that I would have paid Wolfman prices for them. Sure was easy to order too.

I have also tried or owned every high end razor and the WR2 SB 1.25 was one of the best shavers for me. So smooth and efficient

Would be nice if we could ALL try one!
Would be nice if James would actually reply back to potential customers via email too but that doesn’t look like it is going to happen anytime soon either.

I hope to one day own a business so successful I can avoid contact with potential customers and still have people lined up to throw cash at me.

Prices were increased however, what does it matter if they are rarely for sale.

Titanium razors were just available

Yeah, he stopped responding when people were begging to buy razors. I'd stop replying too

Dang, missed the ti

Begging? Really?
