I think machining is in its second week since the 9/6 google order system started, now caught up to 9/18 orders

When my basic polish WR2 SS 1.55 came in a few weeks ago that was the icing on the cake.

If in Titanium, would you get the 1.55 SB ?

Assuming the asking price wasn't exorbitant.

In a way, I'm glad my name won't be called for probably at least another 9 months or so. I've been on an SE (primarily AC w/ the Blackland Vector) kick, and DE is of minimal interest to me these days. Sacrilege, I know, but if I did get that magic email right now, I honesty think I'd pass and let the line move ahead. This waiting time will allow me to more accurately assess if this is simply a phase for me.
To be clear, I would also pass on the Blackland Tradere if it was released right now, and that is a razor I had been salivating over too, so it's not only abut Wolfman. The only DE that, in my current fog, I currently see myself buying for sure is the H&SCo. hardcoat Al N075 base plate-only, and that's more to simply support Aji than anything else.

I think a lot of guys are in the position of passing on SS when their time came up. I'm on the list somewhere and I'll pass. Actually, my plan is to tell James I pass on SS but please open a Ti/Bronze list and put me on that one. Maybe if enough guys did the same, we could see movement on that front.

I believe this Chinese virus has a lot of guys rethinking $500+ razors. They are definitely a luxury items, ones that might be hard to get people to let go of that kinda cheddar for.
However, a Ti WR2 might change some minds and keep you working.
Re: ti version, I honestly don't know. I've never even so much as held a Wolfman, so this feeling isn't out of some sense of nonchalance about the brand in any way, be it SS version or otherwise. I am a first time maybe-buyer, hell, this is the first time I've even attempted to buy. Not to cause a flame war, but I never cared for his old system, nor do I care for "drops" in general. I'm a consumer who tends to value availability over exclusivity. YMMV, of course, and no disrespect intended.
