Material Overview

This is an overview of the materials we use to assist you to find your favorite. Please keep in mind that horns and woods grow naturally. Depending on the pictures of our shop a razor or leather may look different when you unpack it. If you know exactly what you want please feel free to contact us. Let us know what you have in mind. We will send you pictures of a range of items for you specific choice. 

All woods are satined. The horn is polished. We give the horn and the wood a protection with natural oil. We do not use a coating in order to let these natural materials breathe.
