Description
We are stocking this Desert Ironwood Transatlantique razor elsewhere in a 7/8 hook nose version. Here we have a smaller 5/8 version of that beautiful razor. It has the same stunning desert ironwood scales, and a plain spine. The blade is satin finished to both sides and jimping to the lower tang. This version of the razor has a French nose. The wood used for the Desert Ironwood Transatlantique razor has become expensive but the wonderful graining of this wood gives a luxurious look and feel to any razor.
Thiers Issard registered the “Le Transatlantique” trademark in 1914, in honor of Jeanne Thiers, the owner’s sister, who adored ships and travelling. Today the beautiful sailing ship transatlantic trademark can be seen on the side of Thiers Issard straight razors along with Jeanne’s English name, Jane, which appears on the reverse of the tang.
Supplied in a leather Thiers Issard wallet. Colour may vary.
As with all our razors, this will be supplied ready to use in accordance with our shave ready policy.
