I recently signed up to be on Wolfman Razors waitlist after having a big win at the craps table; this will be my first Wolfman Razor. For those who have experience dealing with WR let me know what to expect. An additional question I have is do they customize the blade gap for your chosen razor head or are the razor heads built with a specific blade gap? Thank you in advance for any and all info.
I’ve heard their quality is top notch. About how long was the wait time for your Wolfman Razor? On the website it says about 4-5 months.
In 2015, when I bought my first two Wolfman razors, there was order by email and it took from the first week of February until last week of March, when they were shipped. There was also the Guerrilla Razor that took 5 days from order to delivery, back in 2017.
Angelo, I was on the waitlist for almost three months. This was about a year ago. I received my razor 6 weeks after providing the specifications. I don’t mean to burst your bubble! I remember how excited I was at the prospect of receiving my first Wolfman, but honestly didn’t find the razor to shave any better than my Karve or Colonial Silversmith, both of which were less than half the price. I just sold mine about six months ago. Your friend, Jeff
Caveat Emptor, Angelo. Beautifully created razors, but shave no better than a RazoRock. You choose your gap and OC or SB or Combo. You'll choose a handle. I had a 1.15 gap and a Darwin handle. BIG mistake. The Darwin handle is quite uncomfortable (IMO). I, too, sold mine after about a month, These days, there are many Wolfman razors for sale on the aftermarket. The "bloom is off the rose", so to speak. I would purchase one second hand. You have choices now. Good Luck.
I may, if I still go through with buying a razor from WR I may change my choice of handle. Currently I chose the Darwin handle in the waitlist form.
Yesterday I emailed WR to make sure I was on the list; OCD on my end and worrying I screwed up the form. They emailed me back saying yes I’m on the list and the wait time is 10-12 months.
You are paying for the polishing job on a Wolfman razor. The quality of the polishing job is the one thing that sets Wolfman apart from other manufacturers.
