Boker Schildpatt 2.0


Boker The Celebrated Curly Birch

Boker 'Schildpatt 2.0' is a gorgeous extra full hollow straight razor with a straight end / spike point that presents itself in an improved look. It features a gold-wash on the spine and front side of the blade. The razor uses 1.2210 carbon steel and although listed at 6/8 it measures 7/8. Scales are faux tortoise with a silver nickel Boker inlay. It's very sharp and very hollow. Shaves extremely well. Always watch out for the spike point though.


These are high end razors for beginners or seasoned straight razor users that take a fine edge when properly honed. Boker razors come standard with a factory edge but are nowhere near a true professionally honed razor's edge. I advise you to either purchase the razor from a reputable store that sells the razor as 'shave ready' or you can order a honing service straight from my web site to have it professionally honed/sharpened especially if you are starting out with your first straight razor shave.
