Are Boker King Cutters back in production?
Gents, sorry if this has been asked/answered before, I probably missed it. But check this out...Boker King Cutter Spanish Point Straight Razor 140502 - eBay (item 260357124241 end time Mar-05-09 19:05:01 PST)
Here's a cut and paste of the description...
"The new edition of a classic piece from 1906. To improve the cutting capability, real silver was added to the blade steel. Even today the structure of the blade surface is refined by the addition of silver, which improves the shaving result significantly. The carbon steel blade has the popular Spanish Point. The so called tapered hollow point of this blade can only be ground by highly experienced experts. Blade size 5/8". The handle scales are made of authentic buffalo horn. Each piece is serialized and comes in a historical box with a certificate of authenticity."
What a gorgeous razor. Are these in current production, and if so, by what manufacturer? Possibly yet another Dovo sub-brand?
Edit: Looks like I answered my own question... a bit of searching around revealed a few places selling these. So yeah, they are definitely newly minted.Last edited by FloorPizza; 02-05-2009 at 02:09 AM.
