Thread: Heribert Wacker Straight Razors

Any good? Comments

I have one of the quarter hollow 6/8 and its a very nice shaver. Not the easiest razor to hone (for me), but once there - great shave!

I saw a bunch of them when John Crowley came to the Dallas meet-up. Real beauties (I liked the Antik esp well) and I would recommend having John hone it - much easier to keep it sharp than to get (any razor) sharp. John's a good guy.

I am a huge fan of both shavingshop.com and Wacker razors. I currently have 2 and plan on purchasing another soon. I have a 6/8 Wacker Antik round point with dark buffalo horn scales. The other is a 7/8 Wacker Jungmeister with blonde buffalo horn scales. The 7/8 has become my favorite.

I would highly recommend them. They are top notch quality and if you get it honed by John, it will be the sharpest razor in your collection, guaranteed. Pick one up and you won't be dissapointed. Hope this helps a bit.
