Thiers Issard - '1920 Special Premiere Barbe' Straight Razor, Round Point, 4/8"

A true masterpiece for dedicated barbers and shaving enthusiasts, the Thiers-Issard 1920 Special 1ère Barbe hollowed razor exemplifies the legacy of French craftsmanship. Forged from 100% premium carbon steel, each razor is meticulously satin-polished on both sides, ensuring a flawless finish and exceptional sharpness.

Designed exclusively with a round nose for enhanced safety and precision, this razor features anti-slip jimps on the lower side of the tang, providing superior grip and control during every shave. The 4/8" blade proudly displays a distinctive black electrochemical mark, while the tang is stamped with the iconic THIERS-ISSARD™ signature—symbols of authenticity and tradition.

Presented in a luxurious black soft calf leather pouch, this razor is as elegant as it is functional. Manufactured since 1884 with the world’s finest steel, each piece upholds a heritage of excellence and durability.

All Thiers-Issard™ razors are delivered shave-ready. To preserve the integrity of the carbon steel blade, thoroughly dry both the blade and handle after each use, and store the razor free from moisture. 

For occasional use, the blade should be covered with vaseline.

Made in France.
