Wolfman WR2 Head Discussion

What is everyone's preference on handles? I am torn between the SS WRH2 80mm or 90mm with the hollow option.

I tried different handles (80, 85, 90, 95, 100mm) and found 90mm handle suits me best. But depend on what you prefer, how big are your hands, etc.

All handles except bbs are 100 wrh2 customs going back yrs. Although did once get blessed with a Darwin on secondary market purchase. Darwin was incredible handle ergonomically but aesthetically just hideous to my perspective and didnt fit std wolfman stand (which was a deal killer). But again, practically, possibly best ergonomic handle ever used.

Sean saw a comment earlier (thought yours) where stated wr1 tongue/groove v wr2 4 tab were of no difference re loading/unloading blades. May have been somebody else

Regular length for Handles is 90mm. 100mm and 80mm are both now options.

Speaking to what I have owned not std nor other customs/options.

Expounding, tried 1 and 7 handles as well. What is interesting is that smooth or super knurled, the wet soapy fingered grip is nonetheless superb. My 2 preference is solely arsthetique driven. As to length, despite small hands (can barely palm a basketball), find longer length handle allows more control. Tend to choke up on the handle and the extra length provides stability by securely pressing into the palm.

Sorry, I have difficulty understanding what you are saying sometimes when you don’t speak plainly.

as far as handles the 2 is my favorite. Really like the 1 - the std may be just a tad heavy. Never gelled with the 7 - balance seemed good but did not like the looks. One other note I have the 1.15 Ti SB and really feel the blade. The angle seems narrow. Good efficiency though. Would definitely not go higher; perhaps may try a 1.05 but afraid I would lose the close shave.

Don’t be afraid. The shaves are very similar. A little less efficiency but less blade feel on the ATG passes. A very nice gap. I own and use both

Had a Beautiful Shave today with the Ti WR2 1.15 on one day of growth. Smooth and Efficient, this was the perfect follow up to the 1.25 Shave I had yesterday. I did three passes with touch up, and I’m BBS with zero irritation. I’m really enjoying both the 1.25 as well as the 1.15. Next I’m going to alternate shaves between the SS 1.15 and the Ti 1.15 to see if I notice any difference other than the weight.

Apologies for the obfuscation, was busy and trying to reply during breaks whilst on the run. Careless use of language on my part: e.g, speaking&c
