Who has a Wacker "Special razor"? Show your photos the structure of the blade plz.
Just received this beautiful Wacker! The gun metal finish is very nice and she shaves just great.
Decisions, decisions...
I bought a 6/8 Wacker from John and it is a beautiful Spanish Point razor to say the least; however, despite having been honed before shipping, it was not shave ready. I ended up sending it out for rehoning and was told the bevel had to be reset, correctly. Ever since it has been one of my favorite shavers. Now I want to buy a 7/8 Wacker but with what it took to get the 6/8 shave ready I am kind of hesitant.
I've read all the posts in this club and it seems to me that it is a 50/50 shot at receiving an actual shave ready razor from John.
Any input?
I just purchased this 7/8. Sure hope this one is honed properly when I get it.
Very nice,have the same blade in 15/16,took some time out of the box to get it just right,but she now shaves like a dream,enjoy.
I considered the 15/16 but the description "I adjudicate/categorize a 15/16" as a smaller 7/8" razor even though it is almost a full 1” blade." threw me off.
Picked up a 1/4 hollow just the other day.
