Who hasn't always wanted to feel like a king? The next time you shave with the incomparable Boker Graf Adolf III, this thought becomes reality. In the hands of a true connoisseur, a straight razor is far more than just a tool. It is a statement, a link to a bygone era in which craftsmanship and tradition were inextricably interwoven.
The Boker Graf Adolf III is a tribute to that time - a straight razor that not only embodies elegance and precision, but also tells a story. The inspiration behind this masterpiece goes back deep into the Middle Ages. Burg Castle on the River Wupper, the landmark of the Bergisches Land region, was once the seat of the powerful Counts of Berg. One of them, Adolf III, lost his life during the Fifth Crusade in Egypt - a fate that is reflected in the artistic design of this extraordinary knife.
The highly polished 6/8-inch blade is capped by a French head that emphasizes its sublime elegance. But it is the fine details that make this straight razor a true collector's item: An ornately decorated blade spine, intricate 24-carat gold plating and an additional decorative rivet on the hand-picked horn handle lend it an aura of royalty.
Crafted with the utmost precision, the blade is ground extra hollow with Wall - a technique that makes it possible to work with minimal pressure and maximum sharpness. The cutting edge glides effortlessly over the skin and transforms every shave into a journey through time. The material follows the centuries-old Solingen tradition: carbon steel, known for its excellent sharpness and fine cutting ability, ensures outstanding performance.
Each knife is elaborately handcrafted, given an individual serial number and delivered in an elegant presentation display. Anyone who owns the Boker Graf Adolf III holds a piece of history in their hands.
