Razors of distinction. Made to be used.
These razors are
designed to be the finest on the market. I have spent a great deal of
time studying both antique and current production razors. Precision
heat
treating methods are employed to provide the sharpest, most enduring
edges available.


It's the things you can't see
that matter most.

Since a razor is first
and foremost a tool, strength and edge holding are paramount to its
utility. The factors most influencing these traits are the steel
selection and the quality of the heat treating. Both are things that
you can't see and have to take the makers word for. I use only factory
new steels in making my Damascus. No used or "mystery"
steels are employed. Currently, I make my Damascus from O1 and L6
tool steels.
I perform all my own heat
treating. Nothing is left to chance with outside venders. By using
modern salt bath and cryogenic techniques I am able to get the highest
performance possible out of my razors.
