which wolfman

[wayne_m]

I've let him know my thought before Holyzeus.

 

[Frenky]

Yes, it was like a rollercoaster. I went from very happy to be on the list to very disappointed.

At the moment he has no shortage of customers, but he's risking losing them if he keeps this up. Wolfman razors are very very nice indeed, but so are ATT, Pils, Timeless...

Why is it so important to be first in line for this particular razor?

 

[Shaverrific666]

I am sure he is a great craftsman..but the handling of the whole thing has been poor IMHO.
I emailed him recently and several times in the past about razor related stuff, ordering, getting on the list ect. He never replied to one. So he may be a talented fellow with regards making great razors, but the other side of his business leaves something to be desired.

It's the principle of forming a queue and sticking to it, not letting someone anywhere in the said queue to jump to the front, is that understandable?

What has he done? From what I can glean, he had a long wait list and then selected a few names at random. Did he then throw away the waiting list or is he keeping the remaining names for the next random selection?

I am slowly learning that it doesn't actually matter if I don't own a certain whatever. I've gotten as far as accepting the truth of that but still feel the craving very strongly.

If anyone has a tub of B&M Midnight Strawberries or Summer Cherries at Midnight or whatever it was called - I really, really want to buy one.

I've got one, but there is a waiting list.

 

[Bechet]

Sucker that I am- what's it called, please, Andreas? and what waiting list?

It was supposed to be a joke, Carl. Blame my teutonic lack of humour...

 

[Bechet]

Addiction does stranger things to one's thinking! I knew it was a joke - but it just might not have been. 1% will do!

After a good sit down last night and think I have come to the conclusion that my thirst for owning a Wolfman is based not on the premise of getting a better shave and rather the thought of what people will think when I photograph it on a SOTD post. In other words I don't need one. My ATT razors give me a cracking shave and at around or indeed above $300 for a Wolfman as nice as they probably are I'm not prepared to spend that on a razor. I think my Yorkshire side of my brain has won out. I'll put all thoughts of owning a wolfman right out of my mind.

A good decision that, and it will save you the heart ache when you don't get on the list or worse, you do get on the list and then the whole thing turns in to a lottery and you find you are no longer on the list! Ahhh.#@+?!

Today I got an e-mail today from Wolfman razors. If I'm on the list I will choose the WR1-OC with the WRH7 Handle. Which material, I dont know yet. Probably 316L stainless steel or C954 Bronze. I think this one is about the same as the ATT R2.

Good choice that's the one I would go for if I was now going for it.
Wolfman, timeless, Hone, vintage Gillettes, so many razors so little money!

 

[Blademonkey]

I was formerly #126 on the list. Bummer.

I feel your pain!

The unobtainable is aways desirable!

 

[Str8_Shaver]

I was #99, and rather than spend my time p*ssing against the wind, I decided to invest my hard earned in a Hone 15 and a Barbaros TR1... happy days ahead, methinks..
