    I have a Livi, It's a great razor, well balanced and holds an edge. I can't say about the other, because I don't own one.

    Haha, I did man. I don't think he wants to pay 500+ for something he's never held/used before. He's old-school.

    I'm not overly fond of the goldwash on Wackers. When I grow up, I want to have this one, though: "Old Sheffield" First Edition, 7/8" - Meisterarbeit The Different Scent:.

    I have to admire your grandfather's taste.

    Here is my suggestion.

    Let him buy the Wacker. Tell him that is what the folks at SRP said he should do.

    Then you and the other children, grandchildren, etc. Chip in and get him the Livi for Father's day.

    Problem solved!!

    Does he have a preference in the grind? The two final choices have different grinds (as I believe the Livi is more hollow than the Wacker), if someone could validate that. That might help make the final choice.

    I have a Wacker and several Livi's and personally I think the Livi's are in a whole other class. its like comparing apples to oranges or a Buick to a Mercedes.
