Razorock and their new Aluminum DE razor. Meet Mr. Lupo...

Why do they think covering the blade tabs is an improvement? I sold my Rex because it covered the blade tabs. It’s harder to load/unload the blade and it’s harder to get under the nose.

Great minds obviously disagree on this matter.

I prefer covered blade tabs. Everyone has their own needs. There is no right or wrong, just preference.

I never owned a wolfman, way to pricy...price and performance are subjective.

The original LASCC wolfman/LA shaving company razor took its inspiration from the Gillette Tech razor I believe.

A note to all razor artisans, you want to protect your design....apply for a design patent or come up with an original patentable invention. Outside of that, nothing is original since Gillette, Gibbs, and all other razor companies have done it all for the last 100 years.

Mostly everything coming out today is not original, they are just tweaks to old designs.

The Rex is a Gibbs improvement.

If the Lupu shave well, that’s all that matters. I am sure RazoRock will release a Stainless steel version if Lupu sales are good.

For razor artisans out there, The name of the game has always been patents...always has and always will be.

Did I just go off topic ???? LOL

That's a Wolfman with covered tabs for certain.

Does The WR1 hold the blade more flat? I don’t own any wolfman razors

No date for release? Not a big fan of the art of the tease.

Any details on gap, etc? Wonder if it's a smoother shave it an aggressive razor? Intrigued...

Got this as a response from RR...

It's a mild shaver, not very aggressive in my opinion.

We don't publish stats on the aluminum razors.

Kind Regards,
Tom
