WOODEN STRAIGHT RAZOR

It’s not called a cut-throat for nothing, so choosing a straight razor over a modern bladed tool can be an intimidating idea. However, with patience, the right technique and practice, you will soon find yourself shaving with professional, barber-like confidence. More importantly: a single-blade razor provides a very close shave because it works directly against the skin. Modern multi-blade razors are guarded, so while you can shave quickly, you will never cut as close without the risk of razor burn. Ergonomically the handle and blade design of a straight razor is also something that modern blade razors can’t match. Find out how.
