5/8 Dovo Special Tortoise
Review Rating: 1 votes, 4.00 average. 5/8 Dovo Special Tortoise

For a while I've been trying to find a good razor suitable for travelling. I wanted something cheap, that performs well, and can easily be replaced if it gets lost or damaged. I tried a Feather AC, very good but also quite expensive, and feels different to a straight. I tried a... Read more

8/8 RW Snake Eye Damascus in Mammoth Tusk Ivory
1 Attachment(s) Review Rating: 2 votes, 5.00 average. 8/8 RW Snake Eye Damascus in Mammoth Tusk Ivory

This is the best Razor Robert has made me. Not the fanciest but this is one Classy but bold Razor. Fit and Trim is wonderful and still has that Artisan touch. The blade took and edge very fast and was not as picky as some other Damascus razors I have honed. The shape is bold and unique but... Read more

Forever Sharp?

So, Mr Boccicolu is in his barber shop one hot humid day in the Bronx a long time ago and Mike the Cop walks in and says,” I’ll have a shave and it better be free”.

Jagger LeGrelot
3 Attachment(s) Jagger LeGrelot

For Grelot fans, there is a great opportunity over at Edwin Jagger's site. I picked up a NOS 6/8 full hollow blade with imitation ivory scales for less than $100 delivered. The blade front is highly polished with a Jagger imprint. As with all Grelots it takes a keen edge and yields a close shave.
