Straight Razors

Straight razors, often referred to as “cut-throat” razors, are traditional shaving tools known for their sharp, exposed blades that provide a very close shave.

Material: Straight razor blades are typically made from high-carbon steel or stainless steel. High-carbon steel blades hold a sharp edge longer, while stainless steel blades are more resistant to rust and corrosion.

Straight Razor Sizes:

Straight razors come in various sizes, which are primarily determined by the width of the blade. The width is measured in fractions of an inch, typically ranging from 3/8″ to 8/8″. The size affects the weight, balance, and maneuverability of the razor.
