/Agree on that one. Wapi's are very solid, and very smooth shavers. I might have to look into picking up another one...

I am a newb and have a handful of shaves in with my wapi and I do get a bit aggravated at the weight of the scales. Do you guys have all metal scales?

I love the wapi...I have steel scales as well, really like them aesthetically...they are much heavier and take a bit of getting used to, but I actually like the added weight, only 'drawback' with wapis, at least with the current edge I have, it is rougher than my carbon razors, its almost like I feel that the blade needs to be sharper so that it would then shave better...any one know what I mean?

Personally, I am not bothered by the scale weight. I like the fact that they are metal
I am pretty sure that all of the stock wapi's have the metal scales.
Sounds like you might need a touchup on your blade, mark777. Although I have noticed that the shave is a bit rougher with a wapi when the blade is right off of the stones. 2 or 3 shaves in, the blade seems to mellow out and becomes very smooth.
