Traditional Straight Razor Design

Unlike disposable shaving systems, traditional straight razors use a reusable blade that requires appropriate edge care and careful handling. The folding design protects the cutting edge when the razor is closed.

A leather sheath is also included for additional storage. Always make sure the razor is completely clean and dry before storing it in leather.

Damascus Razor Care

After use, carefully clean and completely dry the blade. Avoid leaving moisture on Damascus steel or storing a damp razor inside its leather sheath.

Periodic edge maintenance is also important with traditional straight razors. Proper stropping and appropriate sharpening when required help maintain the shaving edge without unnecessary metal removal.
