Thread: Want a Boker Arbolito but it's out of stock!!!

SRD has the Boker Arbolito for 219 but it's out of stock
My Birthday is coming up and I'm looking for something really cool (great shaver).
I was also considering a Fredick's that Glen has for sale.

What do you guys think? Trying to keep it under 200

Here are some good hard to find Bokers at good prices. I have not ordered from here but I have heard good things on multiple forums. At $200 or below...the Elite seems like it would be a steal, but I really like shoulderless razors personally.

Check out The Superior Shave.

A vintage Arbolito is one of those edges you never forget. Never tried a new one.

how about a silver steel?

Heck, I'll go one further and say any vintage Boker. Never tried a new one either.

Ill stick my nose in and endorse a boker silver steel. Fantastic shavers and holds an edge very well. Elites are also great.

I've used several Bokers but not the Arbolitol I have used the silver steel 6/8 and it shaved great I've used the 5/8 Keen Kutter and 6/8 king kutter bokers and they were mighty fine razors. Really come to think of it you really want go wrong with any of the new bokers or if there are in good condition the older ones. Pick out the one you like the looks of and go for it.

I don't think I've ever heard of a bad vintage Boker. They are one of those outfits with the magic name synonymous with quality. The new ones I don't know that much about though I have a Damascus which is relatively new and it's a top shaver.

I will send you a vintage Boker for no cost and you can spend your money on another. It's not NOS or anything but it's pretty decent. Maybe then you can see what you think.


I have a brand new silver steel and it is a fine shaver.

PM me if you are interested.

Best picture I got. I am away from home for some work stuff so I can't grab it.
