I don't think so. The email says "At this time, only existing menu items are being offered. Custom orders (custom handles, engraving etc) are currently not available."

Just got the email asking me to confirm/ place order.
It will be a WR2-SB head, but have been debating (and changing my mind back and forth, whilst reading this and other forums..) between 1.05 and 1.15....
I shave daily (5 or 6 days/ week), and use Timeless Titanium 0.95 SB, or Karve SB-D (and occasionally SB-C, when I need to give my skin a bit of a “break”).
They both seem to offer me best balance between good comfort and smoothness vs efficiency.
Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated!

I think I remember Max Sprecher mentioning about getting a gap between those two, around 1.10... so was wondering whether that might also be an option and hit the right spot... assuming they would agree to manufacture it...

This may just confuse you more, but I think that you can go up to at least a 1.25. I find my 1.55 much smoother than the Karve D.

My turn has finally arrived! But now I'm not sure if I should get a 1.55 or a Rocnel 2020 Sailor. (I won't do both)

Been thinking hard about this for the past week and can't decide lol

Go with the Sailor 2020. Both are great razors but in the Sailor you have many more options

It's a hard choice because I've wanted a Wolfman for so long and suddenly right when my turn comes up I have this option for a razor that is more efficient AND smoother AND has all the gaps covered. On paper it's probably an easy choice to go with the Sailor but there's a weird sentimental aspect making me second guess. I'll probably end up with the sailor.

If you can shave daily with the Timeless 0.95 or Karve D you can easily go for the 1.15 WR2. I have no experience with the 1.25 so can't comment on it.

The WR2 1.05 to me equals more to the Timeless .68

You could probably go up to the 1.25. I have a Timeless and I had a Karve with the D & F plates. The 1.25 beats both Karve options in smoothness and comfort. It’s similar to the Timeless 95 in blade feel.

Agreed...if you can handle a Timeless. 95, you will cruise with a WR2 1.25

I also went from timeless 95 to the wr2sb 1.25 because I wanted more efficiency while still being comfortable. Knew it on first shave and hasn’t let me down since. Sold all my timeless after I soon realized that they deserved a home that would make best use of them. Eventually I did order a 1.45 and it has taken over as no 1 but that is another story
