    Default Finnish Straight Razors

    Anyone know whether there are straights made in Finland? I know they have a knife making tradition, but I have never seen any mention of straights on the forums.

    We will be in Helsinki at the end of the month, and I hope there will be time to poke around in some cutlery stores.

    I have never seen a razor made in Finland however I'm sure there must be some. Probably a very limited production and very few local makers.

    they must've made razors, but probably it wasn't a big industry as in sheffield or solingen, may be easier and cheaper to find than booze though
