Wow. That's turned out beautifully! Great job.

Beautiful.
I always wanted one of these as Wacker makes a nice looking blade.
Wonder how they shave!

I have a modern Wacker and the quality is excellent - gives a very good shave in answer to CanonSterVa. The factory uses honey horn on lots of their razors so this one is not at all out of place - although I would say the finish and pins on this refurb would not be seen on a factory produced razor.

Wealth of information from SRP once again...
I have one Wacker in sight right now (CHEVALIER) and will pursue.
Thank you.

Thanks guys. And this one is a great shaver.I just had to take a couple of passes with it.
Many times with custom type work deviation from what the factory would do is normal. Someone wants a polished blade where the factory had a brushed finish. Pins, scale material etc. will vary from razor to razor.

Thank you.

That just happens to be the model that I have - mine was a 2011 celebration of 70 years and I assume yours will have the same extreme point. Fantastic razor but beware that point around the ears and nose.

I'm sure you will enjoy it as much as I do. The strange thing is that Wackers are not easy to acquire in Europe as there does not seem to be any outlet other than the website - which is German language only. I had to get a colleague to take a look and tell me what to do. When I wrote to Wacker congratulating them on the quality I suggested that they could maybe make their website a bit more user friendly - however, I didn't get a reply
