Feather are a renowned Japanese brand, famed for their world-class Feather DE Razor Blades and range of high-quality stainless-steel razors. The Feather Artist Club SS Shavette Razor (Black) is a straight edge style razor made with extremely high-quality materials, favoured by those who are experienced or professional shavers. The body of the Feather Artist Club SS is crafted from quality stainless steel, allowing for an incredibly close and comfortable friction free shave, as well as increased durability. The tip of the razor features a rounded shape and moderate blade exposure, offering the perfect balance to create a soft and smooth shave. The handle is made using a jet-black super resin material for comfortable hold and balance. No stropping or honing is required for this straight razor as it functions with replaceable razor blades. The blade release is an easy to handle one touch spring mounded mechanism. Please note, the only blades compatible with this product are the Feather Artist Club Pro Super Blades. In order to set the razor up in preparation for shaving, the blades are presented in a plastic contraption that attaches to the end of the shavette and allows the blade to be neatly injected into the blade guard. Feather Artist Club Blades Pro Super are ideal for experienced straight razor enthusiasts to use with Feather Shavettes. Each blade features triple grinding for optimal sharpness and a double coating of platinum alloy and resin. Due to the unparalleled sharpness of the blade, they are recommended for those with particularly thick, coarse hair. The blades are 50mm long, 8.2mm deep, and 0.31mm thick. In the Feather Artist Club SS Shavette Razor, the blade exposure is 1.25mm, offering an exceptionally close shave. To remove used blades, turn the blade holder downward and pinch the top centre of the holder. The holder will open and the blade will drop accordingly.
