    yes those whacker razors are generally real good. it is a widely held notion that he is also making recently released boker razors, under contract.
    Be just and fear not.

    I don't own a Wacker razor......yet. I've also heard good things about them. The only negative feedback I've heard on the new Bokers and I believe on Wacker razors was a review that Joel from B&B did. He really went into great detail about how the new Boker he bought was just terrible for him. That's only one opinion about one razor so I take it with a grain of salt.

    I've got three Heribert Wacker razors from shavingshop.com. All of them are excellent.

    Just went to the website and saw the half dozen he is offering. Five years ago there were pages and pages of HW razors for sale. I guess that is indicative of the stalled economy we're living in nowadays. Great razors BTW. I'm sure you'll love it.

    Gentlemen,
    I have owned several Wacker razors and all have been well made and fine shavers. I still have one, the 13/16 "Antik" in Spanish point — and it's gorgeous.

    I have several Wackers. Nicest one is the #6 of 16 in the Antik series. Never heard of a bad Wacker. Full speed ahead.
