The Senior, in metal, without the cord.
The Wahl 5 Star Cordless Senior Metal Edition is a professional fade clipper with an all-metal housing, a precision fade blade and lithium-ion power that runs corded or cordless. The metal body is the difference — it adds weight where barbers want it and survives drops that crack a plastic housing. The fade blade is built for bulk removal and blending in the same tool, and it can be zero-gapped for the tightest finish.
- Survives shop life — all-metal housing instead of plastic that cracks on the first drop.
- Balance you can feel — the metal body sits heavier in the hand for controlled passes.
- Bulk and blend from one blade — the precision fade blade handles both.
- Never stops mid-cut — lithium-ion power runs cordless or plugged in.
- Zero-gappable for barbers who want the closest possible finish.

Questions Barbers Ask
Is the metal body actually better than the plastic Senior?
It is more durable and heavier. Some barbers prefer the lighter plastic body for long days; barbers who like weight in a clipper for control prefer the metal.
Should I zero-gap it?
Only if you understand what you are doing. Zero-gapping gets you closer but leaves no margin for error against skin, and it accelerates blade wear.
Can I use it plugged in if the battery dies?
Yes — it runs corded or cordless, which is what keeps a busy chair moving when you forgot to charge.
Why Barbers Love It
The Senior has been the fade clipper of record for a long time. In metal, cordless, with a fade blade on it, this is the version most barbers would build if they were given the choice.
