Is this the ultimate stainless steel razor?

The Shaving Shack is delighted to announce that we are now stocking the luxurious Pils Stainless Steel Double Edge Razor (101NE).

“When Pils say that they manufacture all of their handcrafted shaving accessories themselves, they mean it,” said Tom Trueman, head buyer at The Shaving Shack.

“Pils take pride in placing their logo exclusively on products that are designed and processed by hand, never using low-priced bulk parts.”

Finished in a gorgeous brushed stainless steel finish, this connoisseur two-piece razor personifies precision and craftsmanship from the German experts at Pils.

“Absolutely flawless construction combined with a very distinct design makes this the ultimate artisan razor,” Tom added.

US wet shaving guru Mike Sandoval, from Shaving101.com, rates the Pils 101NE DE safety razor as one of the very best.

The Pils 101NE DE safety razor has a price tag of £159.99

He said: “I love mine, plain and simple. It may very well be the last DE razor I ever buy. Can I honestly recommend it? Sure, but with conditions.

“This is NOT a razor for beginners or those looking for a cost effective shave. This is a razor for those who have extra cash lying around asking to be spent, and even then there are razors on the market that cost much less and do a very nice, if not better job for some people.

“This is a razor for those who want a piece of art and craftsmanship that delivers a great shave if your technique is sound.”

$100k sapphire razor now being stocked at The Shaving Shack

June 22, 2011 · Posted in Shaving in the News, Shaving Shack News · Comment 

The Shaving Shack is delighted to announce that we are now stocking the $100,000 Zafirro Iridium razor.

Is it April Fools Day again?

The pure sapphire blades are atomically sharp and guaranteed to last 10 years

Unfortunately, we are not really stocking this luxurious new razor but I thought I would give it a product mention anyway.

According to Zafirro, it’s the world’s first razor with sapphire blades. The handle is made primarily from iridium, one of the rarest and strongest metals in existence.

“In addition to vastly extended blade life, the solid white sapphire blades offer a number of additional advantages over conventional steel blades. They are hypoallergenic, impervious to oxidation and corrosion, and very sharp,” said Zafirro in a statement.

“The sapphire is sharpened using high-energy, ionized particles to create an edge less than 100 atoms in width, 5000 times smaller than the width of a hair.”

The company says it will only produce 99 of the Iridium line, which went on sale yesterday for $100,000.

The blades include a 10-year guarantee and Zafirro will provide complementary servicing and professional cleaning for Iridium customers, as well as resharpening if necessary.

Sounds like a bargain!! For more information, visit www.zafirro.com.

Well if you haven’t got a spare $100k lying around then you might want to pick an alternative razor brand such as Merkur or Parker, we’ve got plenty of these in stock.

“The Goodfella Safety Razor is perfectly balanced allowing the weight of the razor to deliver the blade at the optimum cutting angle resulting in a smooth and close, yet mild shave.”

Leading US wet shaving expert Mike Sandoval descried the new Feather All Stainless safety razor as “probably the most beautifully crafted razor” he has ever seen.

He said: “These are among the highest quality and quite possibly the sharpest instruments that any shaver will ever encounter. Feather’s newest razor breaks the mold of traditional double edge safety razors and raises the bar for design, cutting angle, packaging, and — of course — price.”

These new razors take the good ol’ utilitarian safety razor and make it a luxury item — with a price tag to match. The fact that Feather produced a razor with this quality is a strong indicator that the popularity of double edge shaving has been noticed as worthy of an investment.”
