Shaving can be a drudgery or an indulgence. For the best shaving experience, you should consider trying a Kamisori, the traditional Japanese straight razor. After your first use, you will never forget it! Although the close shave of this straight razor is unparalleled, it does take some time and practice to achieve perfection. Although it may be difficult at first, with practice and patience, the Japanese straight razor is easy to master.
The long history of Japanese straight razors can be traced back over 1,400 years. The razor was originally used to shave monks' heads during rituals. In the Middle Ages, they were used to shave the heads of warriors.
Although Japanese razors are sharpened on both sides like Western razors, they are not symmetrical. One side is flat-concave and called "Ura" and the other is oblique-concave and called "Omote".
This Wa-kamisori, Japanese straight razor, is a perfect example of the Japanese aesthetic. This razor was produced in the workshop of bladesmith Shigeyoshi Iwasaki (b. 1933), in cooperation with his apprentice Ryoichi Mizuochi. Shigeyoshi-san is the son of renowned metallurgist and sword researcher, Hiroshi Iwasaki, who is well respected as a leading authority on traditional forging techniques. Shigeyoshi Iwasaki is considered by many to be the greatest straight razor maker of all time. His work is quite simply beyond compare.
Made of the finest carbon steel and fire-forged with Rentetsu iron (wrought iron), the blade is polished with natural sharpening stones. The blade bear's Iwasake's mark on the back of the blade.
These razors are a source of great pleasure for collectors and users alike. Delivered in a beautiful kiri-wood case.

This is a full hollow ground razor, sometimes referred to as the 'singing' razor because it emits a 'note' when you pluck the edge with your finger. Many straight razor enthusiasts find that thin, singing blades provide the closest, most comfortable shaves.
The handle is crafted from natural ebony wood (Diospyros crassiflora) prized for its dark tones. The handle will protect the blade during storage and offers a nice balance to the blade during use.
Dovo was founded in 1906 just outside of Solingen, Germany. They began as a factory producing straight razors. They were a forge and hollow grinding shop. After World War II, as straight razor sales slowed due to the invention of the electric razor, Dovo began creating hair shears. Since then, they have become one of the leading makers in the shaving and manicure fields. With many people switching back to traditional razors to get the best shave, Dovo has returned to their roots as a quality razor company.
We recommend using a storage pouch when the razor is not being used or when traveling.
