Boker Mother of Pearl 6/8 Straight Razor 2.0

The finely cut and polished shells of magnificent pearl oysters were once used as a common currency, and their visual appeal has made them a production staple within the jewelry world for years. The handles of this beautiful Boker Mother of Pearl razor are made of an incredibly convincing mother of pearl imitation, a synthetic choice that makes them considerably more robust than the natural material. The result is a shimmering handle that harmonizes beautifully with the partial gilding of the blades back and scabbard. The extra hollow and ridge ground 6/8 inch blade is made of the classic non-stainless carbon steel O1. Each razor features an authentic Boker stamp in the blade bore, a certificate of authenticity, and historical packaging. Handmade in the Boker knife manufactory in Solingen.

Like any other razor sold by The Classic Edge Shaving Store, this razor is professionally honed to "shave ready" by Phil. This $25 Value is our way of showing you that we are willing to take our Customer Service to the next level. After all, nothing is worse than buying a Straight Razor as a gift for a loved one, only for them to open the box and realize that they now have to send it away to be sharpened before they can use it. Also included is a free follow up honing that can be used once your razor is in need of a fresh edge.

Please allow a minimum of at least 2-3 business days for us to prepare your Straight Razor, as this is not a product that you buy just anywhere. It needs special attention to detail as it will come in contact with your skin, and must be sanitized and polished before being coated with Renaissance Wax. This careful and considerate attention to each razor is the difference between a shaving store that will rush your razor out the next morning, and our own Artisan-owned shaving store that is nothing less than extreme when it comes to making their clients 100% satisfied. It's our job to ensure that your experience is perfect. We cannot thank you enough for visiting our website, and we hope you have a great day.

Note: When you receive the razor for the first time, carefully take it out of the box and remove the oil with a piece of tissue. The razor has already been stropped and it completely "Shave Ready", so go ahead and shave! You will get 2 shaves before needing to strop (depending on how aggressive your beard growth is. Each time you have used your razor, rinse the blade with hot tap water. Carefully and thoroughly dry the blade and in between the scales with a piece of tissue paper before you close it. We recommend to oil your razor after every use. To maintain a sharp cutting edge, strop regularly prior to shaving.

Stunning Razor

The mother pearl razor is stunning, and has hefty spine for effortless shaves. If I could afford it I would have a seven day set of this razor. The customer service that Jane and Phil provide is top notch.

High quality straight razor

I got this straight razor a few months back and I'm very happy with my purchase. Quality is top notch, the shave is smooth and the steel is fairly easy to hone. Outstanding customer support as well. Thank you so much Phil and Jane!
