Before the invention of interchangeable razor blades, straight “wedge” grind blades were very common for contour shaving. Due to the small width of 3\/8\" and the French point, it is a good choice for experienced users to shave contours with incredible accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA straight razor with a \u003cstrong\u003eFrench point\u003c\/strong\u003e is characterized by the arched, slightly rounded transition of the point towards the blade. When contouring your beard, this allows you to work with millimetre accuracy. For this reason, such a point shape is very popular with professional barbers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStraight razors with a blade width of \u003cstrong\u003e3\/8 inch\u003c\/strong\u003e show their individual strengths on complicated facial areas.

Next, dab it dry with a cloth without touching the cutting edge and stow it open to dry completely. Between two applications there should be at least 48 hours so that the burr can realign itself. If you are not going to use your razor for a longer period of time, apply a bit of acid-free oil to it. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to shave\u003c\/strong\u003e: Your shaving begins with stropping on a leather strop. After you have generously coated your face with shaving lather or shaving oil, grab the blade so that the open handle points away from you. With your free hand, gently hold your skin to form as straight a surface as possible. You set the blade at about 30° angle and smoothly pull it down over your face. First, start going with the hair, and then finish by going against the growth direction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDimensions: 15.6 cm x 2.2 cm x 1 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDovo Straight Razors come with a factory edge that is guaranteed for 2 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Solingen, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dovo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49424740057364,"sku":"DOVO15381387","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4903\/7076\/files\/15381387_Aufsicht_78801b88-21d2-4a18-81d3-4f8c681294a8.jpg?v=1724879649","url":"https:\/\/nesc-development-08192024.myshopify.com\/products\/dovo-inox-wedge-straight-razor-acrylic-handle-french-point-3-8","provider":"NESC Development 08192024","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
