This razor is made in Solingen, Germany and has a heritage of craftsmanship that precedes it. This razor has 5/8 carbon steel blades, marked with “Deluxe” and ebony wood handle.
For over 100 years, the name Timor has been synonymous with quality steel tools. Timor has long been recognized in the world of barbers and hairdressers as suppliers of the highest quality tools.
In early 1923, Paul Giesen and his partner Eugen Forsthoff moved the production of their new factory to Braumstrasse, located in the heart of the Solingen steel district. Today, the firm Giesen & Forsthoff still has production there.
The blade was first hot forged from a piece of carbon steel. This is then hardened by heat treatment to keep its sharp edge. The blade then goes through a number of different machines and hand grinding processes. At this point the different sides are added. The now finished razor is finally hand sharpened to put the final edge.
