I recently picked up a RR Wunderbar and its a wonderful razor. The blade sits in it perfectly every time and with a Feather blade in it, the razor doesnt even feel like its cutting but the hair just melts off.
It is interesting that many seem to think that its a pretty aggressive razor but I find it to be quite mild, with minimal blade feel and even with Feathers I dont seem to nick myself much with it.
Probably the only thing about it that I dont absolutely love is the handle. Mine came with the radio knob handle, which is absolutely beautiful but the bottom half of the handle is smooth, with no knurling and it can be a bit slippery when you hands are wet. Ive got a RR Germany 37 with a Bulldog handle that Im probably going to swap out. I probably would have gotten the barberpole handle with my Wunderbar instead of the radio knob but they were sold out of them at the time. No worries though, if thats my biggest gripe with this razor, I cant complain.
