A classic straight razor style, set in outstanding and adorned handles, with a trident maker’s mark proud in the scales and forged into the blade. You and the generations ahead will love shaving with this fine razor.

Wusthof is a manufacturer of cutlery with an extraordinary history. For nearly 200 years Wusthof has earned a reputation for excellence in both design and quality.

A super hollow grind on this blade, sings while shaving, and keenly set on my hones for many shaves ahead.

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.
