Awesome! Really happy to hear that.

Shane, I am fan of the Lite plate. It also hit a sweet spot for me …
A grand slam!
Thank you!!

Same, I just hope that it's not too mild.

It wouldn’t have high blade exposure or a shallow angle or an angular head and it would have some ugly knurled 90mm handle. It wouldn’t be a Blackbird. With so many great razor options, being different is a feature - not a bug. Thankfully, our goal is never to produce the scientific mean razor.

You left out the ideal client criteria. There is a large group of people who won’t spend 200 on a razor let alone 340. They are not your potential customer for a used blackbird Ti so a new one is out of question.

I'm really looking forward to getting my Brass-bird in and giving it a go..!

Is Lite Ti on pre-order or is it readily available? If yes, has anyone got their Lite plate delivered yet. Asking since it's available in Satin finish i am curious to see how contrasting does the Satin plate look on the brushed Ti top cap and handle.

Readily available, but nobody has them because they just dropped yesterday. Shipping starts Monday so I’d expect Weds/Thurs for earliest deliveries.

Blackbird looks like it’s going to be a RAD killer for me. BBS in two passes two days in a row. Zero discomfort or irritation or weepers.

Makes me doubly sick that I missed out on the BrassBird.
