Proraso Folding Wood Handle Razor - Barber-Grade Shavette Straight Razor

Master the art of traditional Italian wet grooming with the professional Proraso Folding Wood Handle Razor. This exquisite cut-throat style shavette is precision-engineered for barbershops and grooming enthusiasts who demand the absolute peak of edge control and facial profiling. If you are struggling with broad, clumsy cartridge razors that make line-ups difficult, irritate the skin, or cause razor bumps, upgrading to this single-blade system delivers an incredibly smooth shave, crisp beard contours, and complete protection against skin irritation.

Beautifully balanced and weighted for total hand control, this folding razor features a premium, moisture-resistant natural walnut wood handle laser-etched with the iconic Proraso insignia. The heavy-duty blade holder is constructed from high-grade stainless steel, utilizing a reliable swing-lock mechanism that secures standard half double-edge razor blades perfectly in position. This smart shavette design eliminates the tedious maintenance, stropping, and honing required by traditional fixed straight razors, giving you an ultra-hygienic, surgically sharp blade change for every single shave or client turnaround.

Barber Professional Tip: Shavette cut-throat razors require a completely relaxed wrist and zero downward hand pressure. Hold the Proraso Razor at a precise 30-degree angle relative to your skin surface. Use your free hand to pull the skin completely taut before making short, controlled strokes in the exact direction of your hair growth. For immaculate beard detailing, neck cleanup, or mustache framing, always use a clear shaving gel or a highly translucent pre-shave cream so you can monitor your blade path perfectly through every stroke.

Who is this Product Suitable For:

• Beard Detailing Masters: An essential instrument for crisp cheek line-ups, tight neck tapers, and meticulous mustache shaping.
• Professional Barber Stylists: Designed with a clean swing-lock blade arm to facilitate fast, hygienic blade swaps between clients.
• Traditional Shaving Purists: Offers the classic, close feel of a traditional cut-throat razor without the hassle of leather sharpening straps.
• Coarse Hair Profiles: The rigid single blade effortlessly slices through dense stubble without clogging or pulling the hair follicles.

How to Use:

Snap a standard double-edge safety blade in half while inside its paper wrapper. Open the Proraso Razor's swing-lock mechanism, position the half-blade securely onto the alignment pins, close the steel clasp, and fold open the walnut wood handle to begin your precision shave.

Complete the Regimen:

To ensure a completely smooth glide, prepare your face by working up a dense lather using the Proraso Green Tea & Oatmeal Shaving Brush Soap. After completing your line-up work, soothe the freshly shaven skin completely and stop irritation with a swipe of the cooling Proraso After Shave Balm.
