Description
The Boker Pro Razette is a new offering from Boker. This barberette has a stainless steel blade holder as an alternative to the usual plastic one. The blade holder of the Boker Pro Razette is designed to accommodate a half double edge, 43 mm standard blade, and hold it securely between the two stainless steel parts. The bottom of the tang is serrated giving a secure grip even when wet. In order to improve opening the two blade halves, the round point is tapered inward on both sides. When the clamp is removed, the two halves can be moved apart to take the razor blade before being pushed back together and clamped for use. Before inserting, the razor blade needs to be carefully broken in half.
Boker say the Boker Pro Razette combines professional functionality, a familiar grip and balance and the authentic aesthetics of a classic straight razor. If you are just starting out, it is an alternative to a traditional straight razor at a much lower price point. The olivewood handles bear the Boker tree logo.
Supplied in a black cardboard box without a blade.
