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.
Asking Please post when you receive product.
How many did the community get?? Head count, compare notes and bring up the quality of the community. Collective learning to better all of us.
Pictures are the proof and you are family. I dont want mine if you dont have yours.

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.

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.

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 a Japanese French tip shorty. They are not my preference but I can see why some like them.

I honed one of these with the buffalo on it a couple weeks ago and it was pretty straight forward. Honed on Naniwa's 1-5-8-12 and took a nice edge. Felt great on the shave test. It's a very nice razor. Nice enough that I ordered one for myself.

I ordered around noon on April 1st and just received my shipping notice today.

My order was on the 1st at 4:20 pm, and got ship notice today too. If that helps anyone.
