The razor's blade is forged into a High Carbon Steel blank that is then Tempered by Both Fire and Ice. The blade takes shape in the hands of a Master Craftsman who shapes and grinds the blank into a semi-finished 5/8 Full Hollow Ground blade. The blade's finishing includes: Custom File Work to create the Jimps on the shank's upper and lower edge; Decorative Brand Stamps on the front and rear of the shank; Polishing to a mirror finish front and rear.
The Decorative Etching on the blade is Germany's highest railroad bridge and is one of the three nostalgic Solingen monuments that were chosen by DOVO for the straight razor trilogy series. From 1894 to 1897 5000 tons of iron and steel were used to build the 547 yard long bridge that spans the little river Wupper at a height of 117 yards.
Every bit of the many generations of experience that went into this razor's making is immediately evident when you hold it in your hand. And rest assurred - It will provide the finest shave possible for many generations to come!
