Thread: differences in the Wapi razors

Hi all, I'm considering the Wapi razors and note there are two 5/8 size razors on offer.

The pictures look the same but the title is different, does anyone know if there's any difference between them?

Thanks,

Justin.

I wonder if one is the french point one I got?

I'm up to 6 Wapi's. 3 of each. I've honed three of the "Non-Stamped" and one of them is like my baby, I use it almost every day. I've got a really small bathroom and I'm not really into bringing my toppers into the straight razor ring of death when I got a few of these laying around. I recently bought 3 of the SFK's and they are next on my list to hone up. I'll keep you posted. But you don't have to wait for me, I think the SFK's were the first reviewed on the forum.

I heard back from the seller and there's no difference between them apparently.

Yes that's what he said to me recently but some of the pics do show round points while the other shows french point sfk stamped. I have three sfk stamped razors but one came in a fsm marked box? All plastic boxes but different colours and slightly different shape.

Interesting, My 2 came unstamped with no boxes - Good thing I love them so much or I would feel cheated! But I don't. They're great!

My 3, as well. Unless Josh stole the boxes when he honed them for me!

The steel looks the same and that's what counts. BTW, that rounded is not really rounded. It looks that way from the angle of the photo.
