The T Bam titanium handles from Russia are beautiful and worth the price but the wait time for delivery is at least two months. The Timeless Ti handles made from Grade 5  titanium usually ship same day and it takes under a week to get..

It looks fancy.. 
I just ordered the handle, too. I will match with RR Lupo .95SB head...

Another shot in the dark request for comparison: Razorock Lupo (any flavor) vs. Timeless Slim; which has more blade feel?

We’re on the same wavelength it seems! I was thinking of doing the same.

I am in on the Lupo 95 Crown ti handle. Mine already departed Akron Distribution center. However, delivery Monday is out because of the holiday. Angel

Received my new handle today, I am very pleased with how it looks, very good grip with all passes, and maintains excellent balance.

The .50 SS Slim has been a truly great performer from day one. Smooth, efficient and highly maneuverable anywhere on one’s mug. I still think though that the regular Ti .95 SB version is a bit easier on my face in terms of smoothness and blade feel but, they are extremely close. As I’ve said before and there are many that have said the same. You can’t go wrong with whatever Timeless configuration you go with. For the far majority of shavers out there, it can be the end all be all razor easily.

Back to the Slim for this early morning shave. Teamed it with the Ethos Lavender Supreme and it was over in 2.5 passes. A wee bit of irritation under the chin and jawline as I buffed & touched up to eradicate any remaining stragglers no fault of the razor or soap, just my overzealous action to achieve a BBS finish. The Hemp Seed Facial Mist and LEA splash took care of that in minutes. The Slim .5 delivers every time with a flawless shave despite its owners moronic indulgences to achieve facial perfection smoothness. I’m the clown, not the razor.

Great day and shaves to all...

A super good morning shave with the Slim. Installed a Bic Chrome blade which is rapidly rising through the de blade ranks as one of the best blades in my arsenal and just a superb feeling shave that gave excellent feedback from the very first stroke to the last touch up run in the Adam’s Apple area. A smooth yet efficient feeling combination with these two that clears whiskers with ease and comfort while instilling confidence on how one just runs through the shave process whether WTG, XTG or ATG passes, the Timeless Slim with the Bic showed a flawless combination of shave prowess & comfort every step of the way. Some say that the .5 Slim is too aggressive, others state it’s not aggressive enough. What can I tell you except that it works for me and others and I feel does not need a big learning curve to master. Within a few strokes this razor can tell you exactly what it’s doing so that a shaver can adjust accordingly. A real good operator is the .5 Slim and with the Bic, its lights out for the whiskers as easy as 1, 2, 3. For me at least.

Great shaves to all….
