Well…for transparency in case some may be curious to what I meant by incomplete satin finish that triggered the first exchange (this copy didn’t have the horizontal grove on the safety bar, visibly). Again, this is subjective depends on what expectations one has for a $200+ razor. This, is what Shane had already explained about going light on the finish. You can judge it yourself, but Shane had confirmed this is “standard”. Everybody is different. You can call me being a picky person. But I’m not gonna look at that unfinished spot and tell myself “it’s okay and to be expected for spending justtt $200+ for a piece of metal.” Now, the horizontal grove is another problem on a different backplate. If I have to pick between two imperfections, I think I’d go with the grove to avoid any part on my razor being naked (missing satin finish).
Anyhow, like it or not you have the choice. Blackland has a very good 30-day satisfaction guarantee in case anybody is not aware. So, there’s nothing to lose as a customer. My intention of posting this thread is not to berate Blackland’s product. As I have said, I love the performance of this Ti Bird and also own the Ti Vector. I just want to see if this issue only occurs in the Ti Satin models or if it only occurs in the Black Friday batch .
