Congrats Mark on the 1.45 Ti!! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on it my friend! Call me over the weekend.

Congrats on the 1.45Ti. I'm sure it's a fantastic shaver. Was the loaner Ti or SS? In either case, I look forward to watching you get accustomed to it. Hopefully this one will work into your daily routine. Maybe run it exclusively for a week and let us know how it does/doesn't work.

The 1.45 I previously used was a friends and it was SS.  The finish on the SS is much better but I really like the feel of the Titanium, it was very smooth, I plan on using it daily for a week or so ( as long as there is something to shave). I am very surprised on how little blade feel there is with such a large gap, but it sure is efficient.

I'll post a picture tomorrow, although by now you all know what a Ti WM with a WRH3 handle looks like Smile - Mine arrived last week and I've been using it most days for this past week. I had initially ordered a 1.25SB, then thought maybe that's too aggressive, so emailed James to ask about changing to a 1.15SB - he said sure, but he was ready to mail the 1.25SB to me, so I stayed with that gap. After reading about all of you using a 1.35, 1.45, and 1.55 gap and still having a face, I'm glad I didn't gap down to the 1.15 - been having great shaves all week with the 1.25SB - better than with the 1.25SB SS - so I'm happy with this one!

Congrats Ian. Ti125 is a great ride.

So, how do you think the blade feel compares to the .94? I know it's still early on, maybe we can revisit in a week or so if necessary.

You will have enough to shave. It may limit you to 1-1.5 passes, with better heard mapping than me, which I know you have.

To soon to compare with .94 except to say there is more blade feel with the .94, and my 94 is SS. I’m still learning everyday on how to improve my technique but you are the King of Wolfman experience LOOT , you must have owned or used every level available. What’s your favorite if you had to pick one?

Dunno about king, but I've had a bunch, for sure. I got crazy lucky and went on a run of drops that will be impossible now...and I'm sure that's the point with the email list. 24 months and we bought a bunch of razors. This thread has sold dozens.

It looks like the email orders he took to this point we're distributed very well, nice to see others getting to play with them too. Especially the larger gaps.

Which one? If I need to be clean shaven everyday and it was my sole razor, Ti115SB. If I had other non-Dufour razors, Ti145SB.

I could go minimalist with a Blackbird Jet and a Ti145, I believe.

As the email google form is for SS only, would it be safe to assume that the Ti will drop in the traditional method?
