Great! Our numbers are growing. Pretty soon they got to create a Weck category in the forums. Okay, so I'm getting ahead of myself. Anyway, welcome to Weck Wednesday @Saxonbowman. Couple of rules here:Well, now that I know this thread is here...I'll see you all next week!
From the old ad that Feather-man posted, it appears to be a Nurse's Prep which they describe as slightly smaller than the Medical Prep. Bob's Weck does appear to be around the size of the hair shapers but definitely looks a lot better built. As always, Bob found a rarity among rare razors.
There are a few OC guards but they are few (and something I want to own!) Just make sure that the teeth curve away from the blade and not under the blade.Thanks for the info. Pure dumb luck on my part - I really had no idea what I was buying. It appeared to be in good condition and the price seemed reasonable.
Are all the ones with toothed guards hair shapers, or were there some open comb models for shaving?

Oh you mean like my Peerless Rubber/Rainbow Packing Weck in post #47?There are a few OC guards but they are few (and something I want to own!) Just make sure that the teeth curve away from the blade and not under the blade.
Exactly like that one. Feel free to send it my way for safe keeping.Oh you mean like my Peerless Rubber/Rainbow Packing Weck in post #47?
Thanks for the welcome! No harm with this thread being here but you might get more visibility in the "Clubs and Brotherhoods" section. Then you would have Blue Monday, Tech Tuesday, and Fatboy Friday for company!Great! Our numbers are growing. Pretty soon they got to create a Weck category in the forums. Okay, so I'm getting ahead of myself. Anyway, welcome to Weck Wednesday @Saxonbowman. Couple of rules here:
1. got to be a Weck format blade. Can use a vintage Weck blade, Personna, Sally, or others (Feather Cut can be used too, but only if you have to).
2. Can use the Weck Safety Razor or any straight razor that takes the Weck blade. If you know of any other safety razor that used the Weck blade, you got to tell the rest of us about it!
3. Enjoy your shave!

Weck Prep shave today. When you have only one Weck you have to show up with what you got.
We're thinking about it@gvw755 Les how about asking mods to move this to the brotherhoods section?
Hello all,
I've checked out the bay on and off for several months trying to find a Weck that was in decent shape for a decent price. Bad timing was usually the name of the game until I ran across this a few weeks ago.
A friend sent me some Personna blades for it, and today was my third shave on it. @Sdm84 mentioned that you guys have a Weck Wednesday going so I figured I'd give it a go today. Between the WSP shaving cream and the Weck I was in shaving Nirvana.
Welcome to the weck side Eric! As usual your choice of product is impeccable! Nice looking razor
