Ralf Aust Straight Razor w/ Spanish Point, Carbon Fibre Scales, 6/8"

It’s well known that a main weakness of many men is a nice splash of carbon fibre. Whether inlaid on a sports-car dashboard or fashioned into a ring, it’s hard to resist carbon fibre’s allure. In addition to sexiness, the carbon fibre scales give a serious degree of durability to this straight razor, making it ideal for those who tend to be hard on their tools.The true Solingen steel and immaculate hollow grind allow for a top-notch shave, and the 6/8” blade makes for slightly easier shaving than traditionally sized blades.

KEY INFORMATION

• All razors are guaranteed shave-ready by our staff.
• For help using your razor, we suggest you take a Straight Razor Shaving Class at one of our stores, or feel free to contact us for advice.
• This razor is made from high carbon steel, which is capable of amazing sharpness and great edge retention but requires a little extra care. Be sure to dry your razor well after every use, and oil with Tsubaki Oil or store in a dry place.
• All straight razors must be stropped before use, to straighten burrs and polish the edge for the smoothest shave possible. Be sure to use a good quality strop and accurate technique.
• Honing/ Sharpening should be done on Japanese synthetic or natural whetstones. You can bring your blade in to a Kent of Inglewood store to be honed, with the first time free on any blades purchased from us. Razor honing classes are also available at your nearest Kent of Inglewood location.
