For those not familiar, straight razors are the traditional wet shaving razor that requires a bit of skill to master. You probably know these as the razors that barbers use around your neck, cheeks, and shoulders. You may even know them by their scary-sounding nickname: ‘cutthroat’ razors. While a bit dangerous to the uninitiated, these are relatively safe once you know what you’re doing. But maybe don’t use one of these when you’re trimming your pubes. 

But we’re confident that with the right tools, some practice, and a few YouTube videos, you’ll be a pro in no time. After honing and stropping your razor blade to keep it in tip-top shape, you can better achieve a clean shave with precision and without irritation.

Double-edged, or ‘safety razors’, are a fantastic option for those who are relatively new to wet shaving, or those who are after a close, comfortable shave with less irritation than a supermarket cartridge razor. Containing a protective guard around the blade, heavy-duty metal or timber handles, and nice machined details, these razors are a small masculine luxury every day.

We have some of the best double edge razor brands in the world, with legends like Muhle, Captain Fawcett’s, Baxter of California, and Supply. These are heavyweights in the industry and make a wide variety of different models, shapes and even gift sets. That said, a safety razor is only as good as the razor blade you use in it. Lucky for you, we also stock some of the best double edge razor blades in the world from brands like Astra and Muhle.
