Boker Manufaktur Solingen 14Er Straight Razor...

While forged razors and the classic wet shave are experiencing a renaissance, genuine broadswords are still rare. For the first time in decades, in all probability even centuries, 8/8 inch wide razors are back in our range. In times when the mighty blades were much more common, 8/8 inch wide razors with straight heads were known as 14s. This marking used to be stamped into the tang of the blade before the forged blades were hardened. We didn’t miss this special feature and also implemented it in our Böker 14. The 8/8 inch wide blade not only bears a historical blade etching with partial gilding, but also a gilded blade back and tang, which is elegantly decorated by a filigree and detailed laser engraving. The entire polishing of the blade and the serration on both sides of the tang round off the features of this knife. We’ve got also used historical models as a basis for the material used for the maintain. The maintain made of dark, rather transparent acrylic blends harmoniously into the overall picture because of the subtle brass inlay. The blade is ground extra hollow with ridge. With authentic Boker stamp in the blade passage, certificate of authenticity and noble floating display. Handmade in the Boker knife manufactory Solingen.
