Man, those are some big numbers. Not sure I could go that big.

Not possible... 1.65 is the highest gap that is attainable for the WR2 according to James!! There are a few lucky owners out there and say it is as smooth as any other gapped WR2 made...I'm waiting for the 2.05!
Interesting. I am a happy owner of a 1.65 WR2, but was thinking of asking if he could go higher. I guess I have my answer. I can attest, even at 1.65 it is a very smooth shave.Not possible... 1.65 is the highest gap that is attainable for the WR2 according to James!!

+1 on the WR2 1.15.My first Wolfman is the 1.25 WR2 with solid 90mm WRH2, and couldn't shave with it without drawing blood. My next Wolf is the 1.05 WR2 with the Darwin handle and it wouldn't cut my beard. I ordered my third Wolf 1.15 WR2 with the hollow 80mm WRH2, and while waiting for it I switched handles on the first two. The 1.25 is amazing on 2+ days growth with the Darwin now, but the 1.05 is still worthless to me even with the heavier solid 90mm WRH2. The 1.15 with hollow 80mm WRH2 is the perfect everyday razor for me, and I'm thinking about getting the WR1 next. The .74 gap is what I was leaning towards, but I'm wondering if it would be too much for me? I've always purchased and had great luck with large gaps, so I'm wondering if the .74 WR1 80mm hollow WRH1 would work out for me? Any thoughts?
I love my 1.15 as well! Even though I have 1.25 too, the 1.15 is still the favorite between the two. I have just used the 1.25 in my rotation for a couple of weeks to see if its going to be a keeper, and I believe I am coming to like it more and more as I continue to use it. However, the entire apple cart may get spilled over as I have a 1.55 on its way here from Wolfman as we speak.+1 on the WR2 1.15.
It balances a happy medium between too aggressive and too mild. I love mine!
I have been told a .74 is close to a 1.15 WR2. I have a 1.15 and 1.25, as well as a WR1 .80 OC. The .80 is closer to the 1.25. Feels a little more aggressive than the 1.25, more blade feel…. but has similar shave results. So I think is safe to say the .74 is closer to the 1.15.What would be a comparable wr2 blade gap to wr1 0.74 SB?
Thank you sirI have been told a .74 is close to a 1.15 WR2. I have a 1.15 and 1.25, as well as a WR1 .80 OC. The .80 is closer to the 1.25. Feels a little more aggressive than the 1.25, more blade feel…. but has similar shave results. So I think is safe to say the .74 is closer to the 1.15.
I have had the 1.25 and 1.35, for me I much prefer the 1.25 because the 1.35 had too much blade feel so the 1.25 was more comfortable for a 2 day shave. However, I eventually settled on 1.15 because it’s the most comfortable gap I have ever used.For those who tried 1.25 and 1.35, how would you compare them? Thanks!
Same for me!1.25 SB. I could probably go up to a 1.35, but then the razor might be too efficient for daily use. Lower than a 1.25 would be too mild for me.
