5/8" Gustave Lalune Straight Razor "The Archer Leef" Leef Wood Scales | Used

Ertan Süer got his start like many of us in the wetshaving community. He was dissatisfied with his shaves and needed a solution. In Turkey he was introduced to a 5/8" Filarmonica Straight Razor, and fell in love. His passion for straight razor shaving grew and so did his hunt for knowledge. This led him on a quest from Turkey to Germany and through France. He has trained with many great straight razor manufacturers and now his own superior straight razors.  If you've experienced Le Grelot or Rasoir Sabre you may have experienced his craftsmanship before!

This straight razor is new and comes 100% Shave Ready from Ertan himself. No need to strop when it arrives, just enjoy the shave! Comes with packaging and leather sheath for storage and travel. Leef wood scales are beautiful and the 5/8" blade will last for lifetimes to come. See why so many are collecting the Ertan Süer razors before the demand for these incredible straight razors gets over-whelming!

This razor came to us as a return and is lightly used and in excellent condition. This razor underwent our complete Straight Razor Restoration Service. It was first polished, removing any past oxidization revealing new metal and a spectacular mirror shine. Next, the scales were cleaned and polished. The blade was professionally rehoned as well.

"Honing starts out on a Chosera 1000 Wet stone were I begin to set the bevel. Once the bevel outline is finished I move onto the Chosera 3000 where the bevel is cleaned up and refined. Next its on to the polishing stage which starts out on the Aishyama 6000 and moves to the naniwa 12000. After the 12k, a perfectly good shave can occur. But we like to take it one step further and finish with a high polish on the Suehiro Gokumyo 20000." Eric, Razor Miester. After honing, the blade is stropped, oiled, and arrives shave ready! Please do not strop this razor before your first shave.
