Wrapping it back up till Tomah.
Nice! can't wait to get mine. are they anywhere close to shave ready?
Thanks for posting the picture. Now I'm super excited, can't wait to get mine in my hands.
As far as I can tell yes. I TPTed one spot mid blade and it grabbed with a quickness. Going to a meet in Tomah, and I want to see how others dial them in.
So I rewrapped my new razor, didnt even wipe the factory grease off of it. I bought another TI and have been shaving with its factory edge for 6 months. Waiting for a meet to get schooled on how to best dial one in. Hardest steel that I have yet to come across.

Seems to get sharper as I use it. Better thought is that I am stropping better with more strokes and that is the culprit of my success. And I dont have the guts to dull the edge and bring it back is also the truth.
Ah, I have to wait. Mine is back ordered. Say they will email when received and ready to ship. At this price definitely worth the wait. But I hate when companies take a back order without telling you up front.
I'm looking now. The 6/8 is 94 and the 5/8 is 177. I wonder why the 5/8'is so much more expensive. I guess that's what most people want. Supply and demand. You guys are killing me. I have 5/8 Dovo and a 7/8 RA. I could use a 6/8 for my collection but thought I was done for a while. Hmmm. What to do
Well. I got my order in. Even know it says out of stock. Great deal. This forum has cost me a small fortune. Lol
You can still order it. May just take a little longer
Who ever gets there's first. You have to let us know how good it is, and if it's really shave ready
Once in a while a razor will show up with a ready-to-go edge right out of the box. I received a RA and a Boker like that some time back. Many high end "Artisan " razors are also fine right from the get go.. Most though require some tuning. I will most probably work on the new TI with either a coticule or a 5k, 8k, 12k Naniwa SS progression. Should have mine tomorrow.. Depending how I like it, I see my TI 1937 Special Coiffure half hollow going on the block sooner than later.
This is like getting a Ford Mustang straight off the assembly line. It is driveable and road worthy,
This group of guys are all Carroll Shelby's when it comes to razors.
Many of you have the skill set to turn them in to hot-rods.
Our shave ready is souped up and turbo charged.
Now if only they made a 2.5" shorty...
Mine did ship today. Woohoo
Surprise surprise. After being told my Razor was back ordered, today I get a ship notice. Anticipation...
Just received a conformation email. My razor shipped today. I'm feeling lucky.
Yep, mine shipped today.
I might actually shave with it before having it pro-honed just to see what a factory edge is like.
I got the notice of shipping today too! Whoo hooo!
Mine shipped also.
Mine arrived today. Must say it is one of the better TI factory bevels I have seen. I'm going to give it a go right out of the box tomorrow. Scales are just fine but a bit lightweight for my personal taste. I could see this getting re-scaled with something big and klunky (think Hart Steel) or a solid set of rosewood, bone, or micarta (probably my all time favorite) in the future. In all, not a bad deal.
Must be the day to ship, 'cuz i got a notice too! Maybe it will get here in time for my Tuesday night shave!
I believe and trust you. Looking forward to your pictures.
More important your influence with the group dialing this hard steel blade in. You are my go to guy for this razor.
19 days till I get a face to face.
To all others pics prove it happen, I am pulling for you. I cant wait to see all of these TIs in a post.

I'll jump on the band wagon- mine shipped too! Was worried, the hold they put on my card account disappeared without a shipping notice. Was expecting an email saying sorry..... But then I got the shipping confirmation. Whew!

Here's mine.
I have two TIs and they can be tough to hone. They simply didn't behave like other razors. I found myself rocking back and forth between grits, nudging thee edge up a little at a time. And it finished with many more passes on the 20k than others would have tolerated. It's like dealing with a really slow-witted person, it takes more to get a reaction out of them.
I have no ship notice or even a backorder notice...I am not even sure where to look for it...no emails since I got my order receipt
My order was on the 1st at 4:20 pm, and got ship notice today too. If that helps anyone.
