Austrian 4/8 Heartring Cut Throat Razor with Faux Ivory Scales
£105.00
This razor was handmade and finished in Solingen, Germany by H. Eicker and Sons, but made for Austrian firm Franz Glanz who were based in Salzburg, Austria.
The Glanz razors were made by Dovo in the 1960s and were bought by Revisor of Germany in 2013. Revisor polished up and stropped the razors to make them 100% shave ready.
Please read our Product Details section for more information on this razor.
These razors leave the workshop in a 'shave ready' condition. However the cutting edge of the razor (the fin) may bend over ever so slightly. Stropping will right the fin. This razor should not need honed for at least 9 months if stropped properly. We recommend you watch some YouTube tutorial videos before your strop this razor.
To prevent corrosion, after use, you must dry the razor thoroughly and store in a dry environment. The razor will benefit from a light application of razor oil if it's going to be stored for more than a few days between use.
