Yes this has come from Wade & Butcher facebook page
Hi Folks. Firstly, I'd just like to express my sincerest best wishes for the new year and I hope that you all have had a fantastic Holiday thus far
I'll cut right to it with this update and say that unfortunately 2017 is not to be the year we formally relaunch with our first new razor model - The Irontusk Razor - despite our very best intentions and efforts to do so. But, as we have said from the start, we are only concerned with bringing about this revival of Wade&Butcher if it is to be done properly and with the greatest of care. So, the official status is that we simply are not ready yet on all fronts to launch, merely to appease some expectation. I am more than confident that all of you watching this unfold would rather see the product and the launch be presented as perfectly as possible as opposed to us jumping the gun and ultimately offering something that isn't exceptional or done to the highest of standards possible.
So, with that said, please know that we are indeed still hard at work with many aspects of this launch still in development - among them is packaging, which we have decided to go in a more 'traditional' route by presenting the Irontusk razor in a specially designed and constructed razor coffin. The boxes are still in production, but they will be slip-lid coffin boxes handcrafted from wood with fine covering papers. This one change will also allow us to offer up the initial razor at a much reduced price.
We are also still working on our new website, with great attention being placed on our 'Heritage Page'. We also have Zak Jarvis on board assisting with a thorough and wonderfully written history, including an interactive time-line and some great insights into our brands extensive history.
TLDR: There is still too much on the go behind the scenes here, so we're aiming to launch the new site and present the Irontusk razor for pre-order as early as possible in the new year.
Thanks once again to you all for your great support, our newsletter subscription numbers are unbelievable and the support and interest in 2017 has been more than we could have anticipated - and so we are very, very thankful for that indeed. Please bear with us a bit longer and don't lose faith, your patience will be greatly rewarded..
Sincerely,
- Mike
