ClassicShaving proudly presents this Handsome and Rugged 1/4 Hollowed Ground 7/8ths Damascus Steel Hand Forged Razor by Tim Zowada.
An American Bladesmith with twenty five years of experience making Damascus Steel, Tim Zowada has meticulously crafted each razor for strength and utility.
Damascus Steel was developed for use in the manufacture of the world's finest quality swords, knives, and other combatant equiptment long before the advent of today's modern steels. Long respected for its superior hardness and edge holding ability, it was feared on the battlefield for its ability to defeat blades forged of lesser quality iron and steel.
When genuine Damascus Steel is used as a blade in Shaving Razors, the edge that can be attained is absolutely fantastic. Routine stropping will keep the edge fresh for years and the quality of the shave, in terms of closeness and comfort, is beyond description.
The natural graining produced, as a result of the laminating and forging, is left evident in the etched steel of the 1/4 Hollowed Round Tip 7/8 blade. A truly striking effect and a thing of uncommon beauty. Due to individual forging, grinding and shaping, no two of these very special razors are ever alike,but will be similar to the picture below.
The finished blade is mounted to a traditional Bocote Wood Handle.
Whether as an addition to a valued collection or used as a daily shaver, this very special razor is certain to exceed your expectations.
ClassicShaving.com is honored to be the Exclusive Distributor of the Zowada Razor.
