MATERIAL
This razor is made of carbon steel with the material designation 1.2210, better known as silver steel. To achieve a hardness of approximately 61 HRC, the material is heated to over 1000 degrees and then immediately quenched with a special oil. The subsequent tempering at about 200 degrees gives the blade elasticity and toughness.
HANDLE MATERIAL
Olive wood is a unique material of nature. It is harder than domestic oak or beech wood and at the same time shows a high resistance to mold. Even untreated olive is already characterized by above-average resistance to water, which of course makes it the perfect material for razors, shaving brushes and shavettes.
GRIND
With hollow grinding, the razor is ground concave from the back to the cutting edge. This design combines great flexibility with high torsional rigidity in longitudinal form. The blade dynamics ensures a smooth shave accompanied by a very characteristic sound, which is triggered by the swinging of the razor at the hair section.
BLADE DESCRIPTION
The round head is the classic shape of a straight razor and will suit most shaving situations. This blade design has been very popular for centuries, as the bulbous shape can be used very safely in the area of the ears, nose and dimples. Also, in the event of a fall, the round head protects you from injury.
