    Gentlemen,

    There is only one James Dufour. There is only one Wolfman.

    The Wolfman razor stands apart from all the double edge razors I have owned in the workmanship and the shave. Nothing like the Wolfman. Does it take a long time to get one? Yes, of course. James is a one man operation, an artist who has created a DE razor I call a masterpiece. Is it worth the time to wait for the Wolfman. I have — several times.

    The Wolfman is totally worth it, it shave as close as R41 but it i going to skin you.
    The fit and finish are topnotch.

    Jimmy,

    Keep trying to get on the Wolfman list. You will not regret it. James is flooded with requests, from what I understand, and being an artist who will put in time and effort to create the perfect razor, one can understand the long waiting period for his Wolfman.

    With the Wolfman, we're talking art, Jimmy. We're talking Brahms, Modigliani, Hemingway — all the great things that make life worth it.

    I love the Mongoose, too, and mine crowns a Jurgen Hempel titanium handle. There are other great stainless steel safety razors floating around, all superb in quality. Yet I have the softest spot for the Wolfman. As a writer myself, an artist of sort, I love a work of art that I regard as exquisite. The Wolfman razor is.

    In the end, I will say this to my friend James Dufour: There is only one Wolfman.

    Most titanium that is used is alloy and has weight to it. Unless it specifies purity you don't know. The Titanium handles for the Mongoose are no lightweights and have magnetic properties.
