Beautiful shave, LOOT! - I have the wus version in Ti - At first the handle felt too big in diameter, but after a few shaves, I like it - Enjoy yours!!!

Just how wide is this handle? Oversized like my Guerrilla or just slightly wider than the rest? I like the scalloped cap on your WR1. Now I'm imagining a WR3 with a scallop design.

It looks great along with the bronze one.

Shot in the dark: any chance someone here has (or has used) both a 0.95 WR2 and H&SCo. Z075-ti? My brother in law has a 50th birthday next December, and I want to get him something nice as a gift. I had him use my Z075-ti for a couple weeks back in November, and he really liked it, but prefers something with a touch more blade exposure. I'm wondering if a 0.95 WR2 would fit that description, at least generally-speaking.

OT: I'm not here much these days, but dang, I despise this new navigation pane that pops up on the left side of the site. I can't even read the first few left-most letters of this message as it's obstructed by the nav pane, hahaha. Who asked for this?? LOL

Thanks - It's probably just slightly wider than the rest - it's having no inward curves that might make it feel a bit bigger... James kindly agreed to make a scalloped cap for my WR1 - just something different that I liked - would be VERY cool on a WR3!!

Thanks Ian. I am absolutely going to enjoy this one quite a bit. Glad you are taking a liking to yours. Based on your picture alone, you knurling looks like mine, not sharp like the BBS1. Now I think this intentional.

I was hoping the knurling on the WRH4 was crisp and sharp like the BBS1, which I consider the best I've held. Unfortunately,  the 4 is more rounded. At least mine is. I like the large diameter and appreciate the weight of solid bronze.  92.5mm handle length is great. An 85 would balance better but, I will take the weight of the extra 7.5mm or so.

The 175SB is a pretty much what I expected. More blade, closer cut, no harshness, and  not a mindless shaver. It demands respect and attention. [Image: b85dfd107f478df5da07b43edb9c1958.jpg]

Man oh Man, what a Shave! That’s a Stunner my Friend, congratulations!

Thanks Hunter. I save the Seville Reserve for special occasions and this was one. I appreciate the hook-up.

LOOT 

I think the knurling is designed like that, even the prototype looked rounded but of course yours is high polished

Thanks for the confirmation. Still a great handle to be able to buy. Now to get the 5 and 6 back on the menu. The more requests he gets, the better. Smile
