Wapienica II - Scale colors?
Hey, gang.
I've seen the Wapienica II razor with it's newer plastic scales and it's round point, and I'm liking it for a first razor. Initially I was considering the original, but the stainless steel scales are so distinctive that I'm reevaluating my choice. Most razors have plastic, bone or wood scales, while vintage tends to have celluloid or bakelite. Starting with plastic scales seems logical.
If muscle memory and good technique are so important to stropping, it seems to me the same principle would be in play with shaving technique, at least partially. So despite the inherent uniqueness of steel scales, I'm leaning toward the market standard in weight.
That being said, all I've seen are the fire engine red scales. What other colors are plastic scales of the Wapi II available in?
I'd like to buy from Ken at Ruprazor, but all I see at his site are the originals. If he offers the Wapi II, I don't see them listed. I'd like to know color options and price.
