Description
New from Boker the Barbarette combines the benefits of a straight razor and a safety razor. It handles like a straight razor, as it is made to the same dimensions as Boker’s straight razors, but doesn’t need honing or stropping to keep the blade sharp. Just simply change the blade when necessary. The blade holder is made of stainless steel and moisture resistant plastic and is designed to fit the 43mm standard DE blade, carefully broken in half, as well as the 65mm standard shavette blade.
This particular model has artificial horn handles, which is almost indistinguishable from the natural material, ranging in colour from white to dark brown and all combinations in between. Supplied in a Boker retro styled cardboard box without a blade.

Boker Straight Razors
Since the Second World War, when the original factory was destroyed, significant investments in staff and technology mean that Boker have become a worldwide leader in the production of high quality razors using only the finest materials with every razor being made by hand through some 170 individual production steps. Skilled master craftsmen produce a blade that is extremely flexible. The edge can be visibly bent on your thumbnail and returns to its original shape when released, meaning they adapt very well to the contours of the face but are sufficiently strong to give many years of use.
Boker Shaving Accessories
Our range of Boker cut-throat razors are complemented by a select range of men's shaving accessories including Boker shaving soap, shave brushes and a straight razor stand as well as the Boker Arbolito manicure sets.
