GREAT decision on getting a second razor! Now when it gets here use it to compare the shave qualities to the one you shipped to SRD for honing.

This will help you to know when the Boker is ready for its honing.

So, stay with the Boker until you get that tug on the beard. Shave with the freshly honed TI. Notice the difference. If it's a night and day diff then send the Boker in for that free hone from SRD.
