Had an old Wahl just die after probably a good 20+ years, kind of looks like the cable is frayed and splitting where it connects to the trimmer. Did a quick check online and the new products don’t even look remotely similar.

Just using it for normal hair cuts at home, any recommendations?

Edit: Preferably on the budget side.

    Another idea on point 1 for pulling the wire through the stress relief would be to heat it up a little bit (with hot water or something) to make it more pliable.

      Ah, yes, if it has some rubber cement type goop in there, a hair dryer will work as well. Good call.
