 Description: 

The Böker Manufaktur Graf Adolf III 140528 is a top-quality straight razor. It is a part of three straight razors which Böker produced to celebrate the three Count van Berg who all come from the region around Solingen. Take, for instance, Count Engelbert II, arch bishop of Cologne. It is also how Böker depicted him on the blade in 24-carat gold leaf.

ot far from the company headquarters of the Boker manufacture in Solingen we find the hallmark of the Bergisches Land region, the castle Burg an der Wupper. It is also one of the largest castles in western Germany and the largest reconstructed castle in North Rhine-Westphalia. The famous history of Castle Burg is inseparably linked to the Duchy Berg and the counts von Berg (Haus Berg 1068-1225). On this occasion we decided to dedicate a series of Straight Razors to the three counts von Berg, which symbolizes parts of the life of the three counts and reminds us of the remarkable property and influence of the counts with impressive ornamentations made from 24 carat gold.

The extraordinary 6/8 inch Straight Razor symbolizes the death of Adolf III Count von Berg during the fifth crusade in Egypt. The end of the polished blade is lined by a French head which underlines the special elegance of this knife. Hand-picked stag scales with additional decorative studs, the elaborate grind of the blade back, and the partial gilding (24 carat) are just a few of the highlights. The blade is ground extra hollow with ridge. Delivered in a refined presentation display with certificate of authenticity and individual serial number.

Solingen 1.2210 carbon steel

Böker used Solingen carbon steel for this straight razor. Although the technical number 1.2210 might not mean that much to most, the term Solingen steel has an excellent reputation worldwide. You could even say that a part of Solingen's reputation as a knife city is the result of the excellent steel quality. After sharpening it is razor-sharp which leaves you with even softer and more comfortable results.

Böker made sure that this straight razor is ready to be used as it is delivered to your doorstep. This means that it is razor-sharp: you can immediately get started.
