Gold is super expensive right now, especially 18 and 24K gold. The gold is offered at cost because I am not reaping a profit from its sale. You’re basically paying for the labor.
I can easily mute the tip of the Barber's Notch. Just make your choice from the drop down when checking out.
Orders placed on Friday are shipped the following Monday.
You can place a custom order if you would like a similar or different straight razor made if it's not available anymore.
24-karat gold is 100%, as-pure-as-it-gets gold, meaning it is non-alloyed. It is also the most expensive type of gold on the market today. Sourcing pure gold is a taxing endeavour and it is not found in abundant quantities. It is precisely this scarcity that makes 24k gold so precious, valuable, and desired.
18k gold is 75% pure gold and 25% other metals, known as alloys. Common alloying metals include silver, copper, and zinc, which are added to enhance the gold's strength and modify its color.
18k gold is a popular choice, representing a balance between the richness of pure gold and the durability needed for everyday wear. It's a common option for those who appreciate the deep, vibrant color of gold and are willing to invest in a higher-quality metal.
YInMn Blue (Y for yttrium, In for indium, and Mn for manganese), aka Oregon Blue or Mas Blue, is an inorganic blue pigment. It was discovered by Mas Subramanian and Andrew Smith, at Oregon State University in 2009. The presence of the expensive metal Indium in YInMn makes it more expensive than other pigments.
Each fordite piece is unique as there are no two alike. Every piece will have a different pattern/color.
Kirinite is known as the next-generation high grade acrylic. Kirinite is extremely tough if not tougher than Corian™. It's very durable and maintenance free.

You can place your order with USPS Express Int, but since I have no way of adding the UPS Worldwide as a shipping option I can upgrade you at no charge to UPS worldwide which usually takes between 3 and 5 business days to arrive. USPS Express Int can easily take up to 4 weeks or longer.
If you want the UPS upgrade please leave me a note when checking out or send me an e-mail.
Your sole option for purchasing and receiving your order in Europe is to utilize an international parcel/shipping forwarding service. Forward2Me and MyUS are widely employed by many of my international customers. They’re very competitive and affordable.
Since you get free shipping in the USA for my custom straight razors, you can use the otherwise charged shipping fee to Europe towards the international forwarding service.
