Wahl Senior 2.0 Professional Clipper

Wahl · £189

A traditional professional clipper with carbon steel DLC-coated blades.

Worth being NRY provisional

Carbon steel alloy blades with a DLC coating, in the shape that has been the professional standard since the nineteen fifties. Carbon steel takes a keener edge than stainless and the diamond coating stops it dulling, which is the combination barbers pay for. The Senior is a fading clipper and a stubborn one: it is not the fastest thing here and it will still be working when several of these are not.

For
Somebody buying one clipper for the next fifteen years.
Not for
Anyone who wants the lightest or quietest tool. This is neither.

What we checked

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
