Congrats on the incoming Wolfy,
Can I ask what spec you decided on & what prompted your choice?

Henery,

Your incoming 1.05 / 1.55 mix really got me thinking about my specific requirements, I have no wish for many razors & my Wolfy must fit within the contrast of my current arsenal.

Now I'm considering 1.25 / 155 sb, could be a last minute decision when I receive my Invoice,

I Look forward to hearing about your new Wr2. Wink

I went with the 1.05 WR2 head on the WRH1 solid handle 90 mm length. I decided on the best brushed satin finish.

My decision process was driven by a couple things. I own already own a WR1 head on a WRH7 handle, so the head choice was easy (wanted the one I don't have). My first Wolfman razor was made before the new finishes and is polished. Over time I've become convinced that I get a better shave from matte or satin razors versus the highly polished ones. So, I was curious to see what the "best" satin polish from Wolfman looks like. I love the aesthetics of the WRH7 handle, but find it slippery and not very practical. Hence the choice of the WRH1 handle which looks very grippy. Finally, the blade gap. I don't mind aggressive razors, but tend to lean towards medium efficient ones. I'd heard the 1.05 was a good balance or sweet spot for this: efficient but not overly aggressive. I rolled the dice on the 1.05.

I will definitely let you know. Although I might not be shaving with this razor for long. I have a few customizing I will be doing on it once it arrives.

Question, was the original brushed finish that was offered before James changed his finish offerings the now matte finish or the satin matte finish?

Satin matte finish,

The Original was a Mirror finish then lightly brushed leaving the luxurious satin matte
