Thread: Woo hoo! Boker Elite is here!

I for one will be looking out for one, that is a very nice razor. Tenacity pays off, good show!

That looks very much like the Dovo Palisander/Carre/Bismarck blades. My Palisander happens to be a great shaving blade. The Boker tang looks slightly thicker. A Spanish pointed shoulderless, that sounds like a very good look.

Oops, sorry for the late reply, Trimmy, I missed your post. They'll stock them when available. There is the possibility, now that we (and others I'm sure) have raised such a stink about the continuing postponement of production, that they might hurry it up a bit. You could always order one - at least you'd be next on the list. Good luck!

Me too, I have a Red Injun 101, 101 RP, and a 102.. not to mention a Rastus 52, a Picadilly, a Silver Steel, and now the Elite. They're all good shavers. Yup, I'm a Boker whore!

Nice! I only have 2 bokers the 101 and a bicycle but i have that one promised to someone...:/

Very nice razor!

That's a smokin' looking blade...is that a 7/8 or an 8/8? Looks great, and a Spanish point would be nice.

It's listed as 6/8 and the Bokers are always a touch larger than listed but the "big blade" look is mostly due to a pronounced spine above the contact point. It's in Glen's capable hands now.

I know you like the big blades as I do. I'm working on a 7/8 Revisor Spanischer Kopf right now; will post a pic next week. (You may now drool!)
