1+! Nice fit!

It's on Ebay, I noticed.

Love the scales they remind me of those classic wooden surfboards.

Since it's a FBU, is it a rare one?

Yep, it is a rare one. SFK Wapienica made few more models over the years but FBU is less common:

Popularna - Popular
Specjalna - Special
Chirurgiczna - Surgical
Wisła - Vistula
Biologiczna - Microtom
Fryzjerska - For Barber Use

Only Fryzjerska and Specjalna have this logo stamped on the tang:

That was a first quality mark in communist era. And i must say that Fryzjerska is really well made.

I didn't know that there was so many different models. Very cool, thanks

Very cool,as mentioned above my first thought was of the old surfboards and also the old woody station wagon.Well done !

No problem. I've decided that if i ever again will rescale Wapi on that sryle of scales, it's going to be patriotic razor. White and red scales, just as our flag. I'll made white out of bone and red out of purlpleheart
