Blade

The 3.5-inch blade forms the working profile of this handmade J2 steel straight razor. Made from J2 high-carbon steel, it is designed to be maintained through traditional straight-razor stropping and sharpening rather than replaced after use.

The Steelcrest Heritage™ combines its handmade blade with the familiar proportions of a traditional J2 steel straight razor.

The folding handle provides space for controlled handling and allows the blade to close away when the razor is not being used.

Care & Use

Clean the blade carefully after use and dry it completely before storage. Regular stropping can help maintain the shaving edge between sharpening sessions.

A leather sheath is included. Never store the razor while wet or damp inside leather, as retained moisture can affect carbon steel over time.
