Traditional Open Comb Safety Razor from Muhle with Hard Resin and Chrome Handle

Firstly, the aesthetic basic shape for the razor handles are turned out of solid rods. Then each individual work piece is polished in several places to give the surface its special shine.

The safety razor with open tooth comb was developed specially for practised wet shavers. Due to the principle of its construction, which features a special blade angle, the model allows a vigorous, very direct shaving technique.

As on safety razors with closed combs, the blade is held in place by the curvature of the cap. The combination of open tooth comb and a gap behind the foam edge ensures that the edge is kept free of stubble and residues. This innovative design also makes subsequent cleaning easier. The open tooth comb allows more shaving cream to remain on the face for a really clean shave.

The shaving result is dependent on the factors beard growth, the density and length of the beard hair, and how these interact with the blade and safety razor. Some will achieve optimal results with a very sharp blade, while others can profit more from gentler blades.

When shaving, the safety razor should at first be drawn across the skin without applying any pressure at all. Shaving with the grain is often sufficient and renders a second shave in the opposite direction unnecessary. The skin should be stretched taut at all times.

The safety razor with its toothed foam edge is ideal for men with a denser, stronger beard growth or for those who prefer to sport three-day stubble.
