At the height of German straight razor production in the early 1900’s, blades like this were collected and enjoyed for generations of shaving.
Unique black oxide finish protects the steel, and contrasts the adorned handles.
The grind is done masterfully, and has a keen smooth shaving edge. Any adventurous shaver would be thrilled to have this fine steel in their morning routine.
A fine and smooth shaving blade, fit for any morning routine. This excellent steel lives up to the tradition that heirloom straight razors promote.
This razor does have signs of age seen, making it a great value given it’s keen edge.
With care this blade will hold a fine finish for ages, and will be shaving for many lifetimes.
A fit collectible, or daily shaver for the beginner.
This blade comes professionally honed, polished, and cleaned. I’ve honed this blade up to a 15,000 grit stone, using a blend of rare, naturally mined, vintage barber stones, and professional grade hones.
This razor has passed many high-standard edge and shave tests, and then washed with soap and warm water, bathed in disinfectant (Barbacide), and bathed in 90% isopropyl alcohol.
The razor is treated with a with a long-lasting moisture barrier to ensure rust resilience during use, and shipped with a light coat of antibacterial oil.
My goal is to get folks settled in a straight razor shaving. If you’re not 100% happy with the razor just send me a message.
A re-honing certificate is included with your purchase. Just mail us your razor with your receipt, and I’ll re-hone it for free.

Strop Kit Details:
A timeless strop design from 100% north american steerhide having a smooth grain, putting a fine polish to your razor edge, and keeping it true after shave.
An excellent mid to high grade leather, hand selected from heavy, 8-12 oz thick steer hide. The hide is vegetable tanned, dyed, and finished with a wax giving it a proud designation as “english bridle”. All strops I personally cut in-house to 2″ in width.
An great strop priced very economically, perfect for learning the “x-stroke” with your straight razor. If during stropping you do make a minor cut, the thick leather is forgiving, and small cuts can be sanded away without any compromise to the functionality.
This kit is all a starting straight shaver needs to maintain a razor for many smooth shaves.
