MATERIAL
Carbon steel 1.2210, decorated with 24 carat gold
HANDLE MATERIAL
ebony black
This straight razor is made of carbon steel with the material designation 1.2210, better known as silver steel. In order to achieve a hardness of around 61 HRC, the material is heated to over 1000 degrees and then immediately quenched with a special oil. The subsequent tempering at around 200 degrees gives the blade elasticity and toughness. The ornaments are created by coating them with 24 carat gold.
Ebony is one of the most valuable woods on earth. Its extremely hard and heavy. It is therefore excellently suited for the production of a high-quality handle. Its structure enables the wood to keep its shape and not to swell, even in a humid environment. Several sanding passes are necessary to create the silky smooth surface.
When hollow grinding, the straight razor is ground concavely from the back to the cutting edge. This design combines great flexibility with high torsional rigidity in the longitudinal form. The blade dynamics ensure a gentle shave accompanied by a very characteristic sound that is triggered by the swinging of the razor when cutting the hair.
Your shave begins with honing the knife on a belt. After generously smearing your face with shaving cream or shaving oil, grip the knife with the open handle pointing away from you. With your free hand, stretch your facial skin to form as straight an area as possible. Position the knife at an angle of about 30° and gently scrape your beard. First with the line, then across and finally against the direction of growth.
Most razors are made from carbon steel. To avoid stains on it, rinse your knife with warm water after shaving. Now pat it dry with a cloth without touching the cutting edge and store it open in a dry place. There should be at least 48 hours between two applications so that the stressed cutting burr can straighten itself out again. If you dont use your knife for a long time, coat it with acid-free care oil. You can find more information here.
