I think there is more chance that it'll go the other wayAnd ofcourse buying one makes it a lonely purchase …. So buying another and sending it to an address which is familiar to you Christopher…. Would be the only rational solution

I ended up buying the Machined version, I watched the final video a few times and the Machined just looked better and the stand for it is a given especially being a plate holder as well, I like the whole design aspect of everything.
I'm looking forward to shaving with it, now for the fun part waiting.

A couple of questions for @Blackland .
Q1: I just want to clarify that the number of the base plate clearly visible on the underside of the razor when fitted, is the number of the plate used at the time ?
Q2: Could you please provide exact details of the blade gap in mm's or whatever between each number of plates being used at the time?
I have pre ordered the razor and I'm super excited to test it out.
Cheers
Mark.

I have also placed an order for the stainless steel model, it's light enough so I will not be needing the titanium version after all!
I'm very much looking forward to trying it out sometime in August this year.

I plan on using my 1912 for a week or two before it arrives so I can do a good comparison.
One thing is for sure, there's been a lot of effort in the whole design aspect.

1. Yes, the number shown on the bottom reflects the selected shave level.
2. We don't provide those specs for any of our razors. But we will be updating the Sabre page with our Razor Performance Rating to better describe the shaving characteristics of each shave level.
Thank you!
@Blackland Just to clarify, is the head or more accurately the components of the head CNC machined or produced by some other method such as cast, pressed etc.

Every component of the Sabre is CNC machined by us in-house.
How's production going, Shane? Still on for an early August release?
