I just picked up a NOS Wapi2 on eBay for $39. It was advertized as shave ready, and being the skeptic I am, I just figured "wait and see". It arrived in the mail last night. I opened it up and it looked perfect. I stropped it up this morning and was delighted to find it shaved quite nicely! It looks like a surgical instrument with the stainless steel scales. I put it in my rotation and it will probably become my travel razor whenever I hit the road for 0vernight gigs with the band. Why did I call it my first Wapi? Probably because I will be looking for more. Somebody stop me!
