Today is my birthday and I just ordered a Wacker "Barbiers Bride". I'm very anxious to hone it myself.

Wacker Le Chevalier
I have always wanted a Wacker but never badly enough to pay the price of a new one.
Last week I found this baby on marktplaats, a free Dutch auction site. Used 2x according to the seller who had not managed to get a good shave out of her.
I couldn't resist and bought her half the original price. Macroscopically it is in pristine condition. With the loupe I saw minimal damage at the toe end of the bevel. I reset the bevel with a 1.5K Shapton and the Yokoma barber hone. Finished with the kosher coticule with slurry (hone on top of the pictures) and the vintage natural combo without slurry. The kosher coticule is a bit grittier than the vintage one.Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr.

Shaved yesterday and today with the Le Chevalier: she takes a very keen edge and gives an irritation-free shave.
One thing I don't like about this razor: the large part of the tang covered by the scales when the razor is open. For the sake of comparison I pictured it with a random razor of my rotation. That bit of the scales really gets in the way when stropping. Any thoughts?
