It moves smoothly uniformly when opening and closing. It seems to sit well and straight between the scales. There does not seem to be any corrosion around the pins, just a little bit of polish left from my hasty wipe down for the pictures. I took care of it later on.

Looks nice and thanks for sharing the pics! I saw those awhile back and thought what a cool way to do a 7 Day Set... Grab 7 of those, clean them up and send them to be engraved, hone 'em up and come up with a case. Really looks like it will turn out to be a great shaver!

So after finding out that Poste Italia is on strike, Mastro Livi was kind enough to extend to me his DHL account number to have them come to work first thing tomorrow morning to pick up my razor. I am also able to pay DHL for Mr Livi's services and their fees when I receive the razor back. I am already very pleased with the Mastro's cervices.
I will have to report how the razor performed once its back from honing.

So after some phone calls and emails back and forth to Mastro Livi we (work and I) finally came to an agreement. Since I was not able to send a razor through a courier service or the poste Mastro Livi generously arranged for the pickup of my razor. It will be delivered back to me Tuesday, shave ready and honed my the Mastro. Excellent customer service. I cannot wait to shave.

I've been wanting one for a while. Ranger, would you mind PM'ing me that guy's info if you wouldn't mind? I had his web address at one time, and my DA lost it during a spring cleaning fest.

Hey Ranger, My Wapi is my favourite razor. It shaves like a dream. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine. If you don't like it after a couple shaves send it this way.
