The Post-Lockdown Style Essentials
Sing For Me
French bladesmiths make a big deal out of their singing razors and you can see why. The hollower the ground, the higher the pitch the ringing (or in this case, singing) sound is at the end of a strop. Thiers-Issard have been making wicked sharp blades for two centuries now and the Thiers-Issard Singing Razor 7/8 Snakewood is a fine culmination of this history.
It has a fully hollow ground blade and made is from lead-hardened C135 Sheffield steel. To hold this beautifully thin blade, the grip is made of Snakewood, a dense South American wood with a rich grain pattern. To top it all off, it has a “Le Chasseur” mark in hand-applied gold leaf. An absolutely beautiful piece of craftsmanship to run across your face.
