BOKER DAMASCUS STRAIGHT RAZORS<br />

The Damascus straight razors<br />

are an absolute highlight in the<br />

more than 100-year history of<br />

worldwide renown of the high<br />

quality straight razors by <strong>Boker</strong>.<br />

The special exclusivity comes<br />

from using powder metallurgical,<br />

stainless Damascus steel from<br />

Sweden. In a very technically<br />

demanding and complex process,<br />

180 layers of Damascus steel are<br />

created in a sintering process to<br />

create the perfect starting material<br />

for the fine hand-sharpening of<br />

the blades. The traditional extrahollow<br />

grind and the exceptionally<br />

fine edge harmonizes the beautiful,<br />

extraordinarily fine grain of the<br />

natural Damascus pattern. The<br />

5/8" wide blade has a two-sided<br />

serration for a safe grip, and<br />

like all traditionally made, high<br />

quality Solingen straight razors,<br />

boasts a historic blade stamp<br />

which is punched into the tang<br />

of the blade before tempering.<br />

<strong>Boker</strong> Damascus straight razors<br />

are completely handmade in<br />

the <strong>Boker</strong> knife manufactory in<br />

Solingen, in a 150-step process.<br />

All razors come complete with<br />

a certificate of authenticity in a<br />

refined presentation display, serial<br />

numbered.<br />

1 BOKER DAMASCUS STAG<br />

The hand selected horn handle<br />

scales of this <strong>Boker</strong> Damascus<br />

straight razor in combination<br />

with the refined, stainless 5/8"<br />

Damascus blade make it truly<br />

unique. The high quality look<br />

of the elegant horn handle is<br />

complemented by the use of<br />

a third pin. The Damascus<br />

blade features a Spanish head,<br />

which is especially suitable for<br />

precise shaving and contouring,<br />

due to its well defined front<br />

edge.<br />

2 BOKER DAMASCUS EBONY<br />

The dark color and fine grain of<br />

the refined wood emphasize the<br />

elegance and noble look of this<br />

unique piece of artistry. This<br />

valuable fine wood is very dense,<br />

very sturdy, and highly resistant to<br />

aging, which makes it a preferred<br />

choice not only for decorative<br />

effect. As an additional highlight,<br />

the historic <strong>Boker</strong> tree logo is<br />

expertly inserted into the handle<br />

scales, a craft that is hard to find<br />

these days. The tang is serrated<br />

on both sides.<br />

3 BOKER DAMASCUS CARBON<br />

The <strong>Boker</strong> knife manufactory is<br />

known for processing innovative<br />

materials. This modern straight<br />

razor combines the stainless,<br />

powder metallurgical Damascus<br />

blade, made from 180 layers,<br />

with handle scales made from<br />

genuine carbon fiber. This high<br />

tech handle is CNC-milled from<br />

a solid piece. The fine grain<br />

of the Damascus pattern creates<br />

a harmonic interplay with the<br />

lightweight, manually contoured<br />

carbon handle.<br />
