Details

The Ironcrest Pro™ is designed for traditional wet-shaving enthusiasts who prefer a reusable folding razor rather than a replaceable-blade format. Its 9-inch overall length combines a compact 3.5-inch blade with a longer handle for controlled handling.

Each razor reflects the individual character associated with handmade J2 steel construction.

Blade

The 3.5-inch blade is crafted from handmade J2 steel in a traditional straight-razor profile. Appropriate stropping and sharpening are important for maintaining the shaving edge and supporting edge retention over time.

Unlike disposable shaving blades, this J2 steel blade is designed to be maintained as part of traditional straight-razor care.

Handle Specifications

Handle Length: 5.5 inches
Design: Traditional Folding Handle
Overall Length: 9 inches

The folding design allows the blade to close into the handle when the razor is not being used. Its longer handle also provides the traditional proportions associated with reusable straight razors.

Care & Use

Clean the blade carefully after shaving and dry it completely before storage. High-carbon steel should not be left damp or exposed to moisture for extended periods.

Regular stropping helps maintain the shaving edge between sharpening sessions. When the edge eventually requires sharpening, use an appropriate straight-razor sharpening method rather than removing unnecessary steel.

For more information about the difference between maintaining and restoring an edge, read our Honing vs. Sharpening Guide.

The included leather sheath can be used for storage and transport, but always make sure the razor is completely dry before placing it inside.
