Precautions to preserve your razor

To maintain the quality of your razor over time, a few simple steps are necessary.
After each use, dry the blade thoroughly. Carbon steel, appreciated for its fineness of sharpening, requires this attention to avoid oxidation. In addition, apply a thin film of protective oil when you don’t plan to use it for several days.

Before shaving, gently run the blade over a sharpening leather. This ritual maintains the line and guarantees an impeccable glide. For more advanced maintenance, a stone sharpening or the intervention of a specialist can be useful.

The juniper handle, on the other hand, requires little care. A touch of natural oil, applied occasionally, is enough to preserve its shine and subtle fragrance. Finally, always keep your razor in a dry and ventilated place, in order to protect the blade as well as the wood.
