Paradigm Ti1 - potential new run interest

Depending on price I'd be in.

Interested, prefer the satin finish.

Depending on price I'd be in.

Probably 450-500 dollars would be my guess.  It would cost a lot to do a limited run, etc.

I am for the release of a new Paradigm)) This is our entertainment and hobby, so everything that contributes to it peacefully without loss of life or damage to anyone is good!

Gentlemen! Maybe someone is ready to sell and exchange Paradigm Ti 1 for me? I also have for exchange Raw RS-10 (new, in original film and box) and several Varlets, and other items))

I want to get one

Plot twist: Javelin Head on the Ti1 handle?

One more vote for the Javelin Head, but on the Ti2 handle.

If he's going to release the Ti1, I'm not sure I'll purchase it because I've already used and sold that razor. My decision really depends on the price and what other artisans are releasing at that time. For example, if Rocnel releases the Ti Standard Sailor at a cheaper or similar price to the Ti1, I will choose to buy only the Sailor Ti. I don't want to spend too much by getting two razors.

Ti1 has blade-forward design and satin finish will make the razor easier to control.

I’d be in for sure and I’ve talked to Andy about this a while ago when I found out about the Diamondback.

The Ti 1 was for me one of the best modern razors in my den and after having one for around 4 yrs or so many longer I sold it. I definitely have some regrets about that move. I know they are one of the rarest modern razors as there were only 51 made.

I’ve done many shaves and shave comparisons with mine and there were many things I really liked about it. It was definitely more efficient than any other Paradigm and I’ve used every Paradigm razor that was released. If you have your technique down and use absolutely no pressure it’s very smooth and extremely well balanced and maneuverable. I’d love to see if it can be finished like the original as that finish was special and Andy mentioned it was some special process that was used back then but can’t remember exactly so I’ll let Andy chime in on that.

So please make it again!

Just riffing here...food for thought:
I can see why it's tempting to bring back an icon that has become urban legend among a small group that
loves limited runs.

But why would you want to piss off so many existing T1 owners (passionate fans) who are now in possession of a rare,
collectors item which will then no doubt depreciate? You do want them to continue being loyal customers.

Why create the perception that this is a brand that has nothing new to offer in terms of innovation and design
and is backward-looking instead of forward-thinking?

From a marketing perspective, I see more upside in announcing and pursuing a totally new design.
New name, new story...(even if you keep the T1 geometry, let the world know it's new). Marketers do this
all the time.

You open up Paradigm to new users...you plant a stake in the ground that says progress.
You take on none of the baggage that the T1 might have had (I have read some feedback about it not
being as smooth etc).

In short, he should do something NEW!

I have one but if I wouldn’t I’ll buy it
