I use my anodized TI razors the same as if they weren’t. Subconsciously I may be more careful during use & when putting them in their stands - but for me I figure if I spent the money on them I may as well enjoy them.

My order was made last October and just got my notice to proceed. Shipping in about 1-2 weeks. So figure yours should finalize in April maybe sooner.

Has anyone got a polished titanium razor from him of late?
Interested in knowing what's the level of polish... and if it is worthy of the premium.
My Taiga Ti SE is mirror polished and I love how smoothly it glides on the face.

Nice. I ordered a Ti in late October, so hopefully it's soon

Regarding the waitlist I signed up the end of October and took delivery in late March so it was 5 months and a few days. Personally I prefer the list rather than those random drops.

This time I chose the polished Ti which was exceptional. It’s mirror finish is not that far off from the highly polished SS IMHO. You won’t be disappointed.

I have a WR2 Ti 1.55 sb and I love it. I prefer to use it more for shaving my head because I can achieve bbs with one pass ATG + some buffing. I would like to try a less efficient gap and I am thinking of 1.35 sb or oc.
My only problem with 1.55 sb is that I cannot achieve long strokes.
Users with DC heads, do you believe the OC will help me to achieve that?

I have a Ti WR2 135 SB and consider it a great gap. I have the 155 in SS and it's also a helluva gap, but I reach for the 135 more often.

I have DC in WR1 0.74, 0.94, and WR2 1.15 OC & 1.25 SB. All of them good, but I've grown weary of the DC format. 

My routine with them was doing 1st WTG with the OC, and cleaning up with the 2nd pass SB ATG. This worked well, but I now prefer to just use an SB or OC for the whole shebang.

I'm not a head shaver, so I don't know how the DC would apply. Doing my face & neck as above was very efficient. 

With DC I think the lower gap should be the OC, the higher the SB. That just makes sense to me though I know some do the opposite approach.
