Description
This Ralf Aust 6/8 stainless steel razor has satin finished blade with a round point and lovely African blackwood scales. It has the usual “Ralf Aust Solingen” mark on the tang and the “Solingen Handarbeit” – handmade in Solingen – mark on the blade. This latest batch of razors have different tang markings on the reverse of the tang to identify that the razor is made from stainless steel. What makes this razor stand out, however, are the scales which are made of African blackwood. Not only does this wood look superb, varying in colour from dark red to almost black, it is robust and has water repellent properties which means that the scales will retain their appeal. Colouring is a like a cross between cocobolo and ebony. This razor is almost the same as IE280010 except that this has contemporary style scales which gives the razor an updated look.
The razor has jimping to both the lower and upper tang. All Ralf Aust razors have a full hollow ground blade.
