Pre-Owned 5/8 Ebony Razor with Sheep & Wolf Mark

£156.00

This is a pre-owned 5/8 Thiers Issard razor with ebony scales and the Sheep & Wolf blade marking in gilt and black on the blade front. The blade is of carbon steel with a plain spine and jimping to the lower tang which is gently curved. It bears the Thiers Issard marking on the tang. It has a mirror finish to the front side of the blade and a satin finish to the reverse side, like the Thiers-Issard 889 range, though the blank is of a slightly diferent shape. It also has beautiful dark ebony scales. I suspect this razor has been little used, if at all, as it still has the original factory sticker on the scales. The razor has some minute indentiations to the left of the wolf which would be from the original grind but overall is in excellent condition. I am selling on behalf of a collector.

This French manufacturer only produces the finest straight razors and is World renowned for the quality and finish of all their goods. Thiers-Issard razors are not just of high quality but also exhibit great flair and style, combined in many cases with historic designs, to result in the most desirable razors.

If you are looking for a luxury razor then we recommend you take a look at the more expensive Thiers Issard razors. Some have hand worked spines, some of which use designs which date back to the 19th Century and, when combined with natural horn scales make for unique and stunning razors.

Thiers-Issard strops are all made to high standards using air and kiln-dried European Beech. The facings are real leather, not artificial as in some strops, and the leather used for wallets is the finest Baragnia hide.

If you have invested in a Thiers-Issard straight razor, it follows that you will want to look after it. Take a look at the range of high quality wallets and boxes we stock from Thiers-Issard in materials such as Baragnia leather, varnished Beech and Burl Elm.
