Straight Razor - Western Avenue 3.0"
Working with Travis of Frier Custom Manufacturing, we develop solutions to problems we find in our barbering experiences in conversation with our shop customers here at Joe's in Chicago. We apply this knowledge for the best possible small run / double-sided safety razors on the market. We combine unique handle designs with simple, effective Merkur Razor heads finished in chrome for striking contrast.
The handle of the Western Ave razor is designed thicker and heavier than traditional razors. This stronger feel provides a more confident shave. This added weight further prevents the common “push” against the the skin thought to be necessary for a close shave. As with all of our razors, we raised the head 5/8" to give better visibility. Better visibility = fewer cuts and a better shave. All of our razors feature a 45-degree approach angle and accept any double-sided safety razor blade.
Each razor includes with a pack of 10 Feather brand double sided razor blades. When given as a gift, the recipient is ready to go without delay.
MEASUREMENTS

PACKAGING
The handmade box is a piece of art in its own right. Working with Joe from Dybdal Designs in Chicago we’ve created a simple, striking box for each razor. Wood is sourced through reclaimed old-growth wood from “deconstruction” projects in Chicago. Each box is handmade and no one box is the same.
