Boker - Herr Feldmann Straight Razor, 6/8", Barber's Notch, Curly Birch Handles
Alexander Feldmann, the trained hairdresser is one of the pioneers of barbering in Germany. Recently, Herr Feldmann was given a special honor when a Boker knife was named after him.
The blade with a barber's notch and serration on both sides is ground extra hollow with a wall. The Barber’s Notch is much like its Spanish counterpart. The barber's notch showcases a subtle concave curve at the blade's tip. This particular notch is purposefully designed to enhance the razor's ease of opening. Such an addition proved especially advantageous for barbers who regularly flicked open multiple razors throughout the day. It requires expert or professional level of use.
6/8” is particularly effective for tackling robust beard growth. Its substantial blade weight ensures a gentle and effortless glide across your skin, yielding a smooth and comfortable shaving experience. It is a popular size preferred by traditional wet shavers.
In addition to the 6/8 inch wide blade, Alexander Feldmann's straight razor of choice impresses with at least two other highlights: The blade etching is laid out in red and matches perfectly with the handle made of stabilized and colored curly birch, which is also provided with a fine engraving. Comes with authentic Boker stamp in the blade, certificate of authenticity and in classic packaging.
