I can't seem to keep track of all new razor releases - and their dates.

Here is a very rough timetable for what we can expect to see come out between now and the end of (2016). You can always hand it to your friends/family as a Christmas gift wish list.


​
As you can see it's very rough and have quite a few gaps in it.
If anyone have any corrections/additions to it do let me know and I can correct/adjust it.

Will you be picking up any of these razors before the year is over?

Beluga should probably be downgraded from "maybe" to "possibly," or even "not bloody likely," given their track record thus far.

Edit: the Rockwell Model T is the only one I'm interested in. Early bird backer on Kickstarter.

Edit 2: Regarding the Oristo, it is an unauthorized copy of the Black Mamba. Per Joe at Italian Barber:
"It's a direct copy of our RazoRock Black Mamba without the UberGlide coating. DE razors are not patentable, so it's really just a game of who can produce things better, at a less expensive price. It's a great design."

He doesn't exactly appear to be outraged, does he?

Beluga: Yeah, their release date is...soft...to put it kindly.

Oristo: If my understanding is correct, and it might well not be, the guys that are making the Oristo are the same guys that designed the Black Mamba for Joe. So, if that is the case at least they didn't copy someone else's design. :)
I assume they never signed an exclusivity deal for the design with IB.

Seems to be a rather 'hectic' end of the year as far as razors goes.

Updated the s/sheet. If anyone have any additional updates/changes/corrections lemme know :)

(Thanks @Blackland Razors for providing the pre-order cost for the BB OC and @theunnamed for confirming vendor for their upcoming adjustable)

* Moved the Rocnel DE42 (the sliding head version) to December as Murat just confirmed that it's still about two months from being released

I am impatiently waiting for the Parker adjustable. Not sure when it will happen but hope soon. I like Parker razors and think/hope this one will be super.
