I paid for Turkish friends who don't have paypal. Then I had a problem with my second order. 
Even the razor shipped to different address. They canceled my second order. Tara said "they[font="Segoe UI", "Segoe UI Web (West European)", "Segoe UI", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif] did not allow more than 2 at this time".[/font]
But It was before new year. Then I registered with different email, I am waiting to receive my second order now.

Oh, yeah that's good to know as I'm on the 3rd strike coming up. 
I'll put it on hold and wait for Titanium, I guess.

The waitlist is going faster now, he might change his policy.

Marvelous set ! So how is the 1.45 compared to the others ? Do you have a favorite ... like if you could only keep one ?

If I only had one, it would be the 2021 Rocnel Sailor! Ha!

I traded a 115 for the 145 so the difference is fairly wide. The 145 still stays crazy smooth. That said, you know I'm partial to the 155 you borrowed. It's the apex in the WR2 line.

Just received my new Wolfy,
Wr2 1.35/1.05 Dc Darwin
Basic Brushed
BEAUTIFUL!

My new favourite finish,




I re-homed most of my collection recently & gave freedom of choice of any gap or handle configuration to the buyers,
I kept just one Wr2 of whatever was last, I was left with the Wr2 155/1.15 Brushed Satin.
My takeaway from having all the gaps was that for me the 145/1.05 Darwin was my favourite razor combining best smoothness with efficiency, but someone bought that one  Huh
On that basis my new one has been created to have similar performance but I wanted a little more blade feel so the 1.35 Oc should provide this.
The Darwin is just fantastic, lets hope for a XL Darwin down the line........ Cool

Not sure if I'm going to order though, really happy with my WR1 OC standard gap and prefer the older brushed finish.

I filled out my form in December, and haven't received the proceed to order!! Anything I can do?

Is this your second order or third one? He was only accepting two orders per person before.

Technically it would be a third razor, however the second one was ordered by someone else but paid for and delivered to me. I didn't know about the limit on orders.

Just to give an update on where the list is at currently, I signed up 1/31/2021 and recieved my proceed to order email 2 days ago. Postponed until some different metals are available as I thought hard about it and don’t think it gets any better for me than my WR1 .80.

Not entirely a head discussion but an interesting experience (at least I found it interesting) and illuminating for me in the future for getting new razors.  So, I love my WR1.  Decided to finally try a WR2.  Ordered it in 1.15 SB standard polish.  Got it two weeks ago.  Tried it with the blades I like best in my WR1 or I've otherwise found to work in that razor -- Bic, Personna, 7 O'Clock Yellow, Feather.  Every shave wasn't comfortable.  About to give up on the WR2.  Then saw a pack of GSBs, which I used to like but stopped using as they're a bit mild.  Put that in the WR2.  Bam.  It clicked.  Great easy shave.  Thinking it might be a fluke or maybe I finally figured out the razor, tried it with another GSB and then another 7 O'Clock.  The GSB rocked.  The 7 O'Clock didn't.  So, the lesson for me is that a different blade can make a world of difference.  At least it did for me in this WR2.
