Genuine Watusi horn - each piece is unique, because the fine pattern of the material is always different, but always almost white to light brown.
The horn of the Watusi cattle originates from Africa. These cattle, which are kept there as working and farm animals just like our European cattle, develop enormous horns that can reach up to 1 meter in length. Unlike us, Africans don't place any value on artificially breeding cattle horns – because there is no shortage of space. Thus, these impressive horns can be used to make everyday objects, such as combs and handles for shaving brushes and razors.
The material's feel, as with all types of horn, is outstanding and cannot be matched by plastic to date. The look is simply beautiful—and unique, too. After all, it's a naturally grown piece of horn.
The razor is completed by a solid chrome-plated brass collar that connects the blade head to the horn handle. Maximum stability is ensured by the internal screw connections made of solid brass screws. Brass is particularly suitable because it is resistant to rust.
Gillette G2 blades, as well as Wilkinson Duplo and other (sliding) brands, fit. Please ask if you're unsure whether your blades will fit.
The horn handle is comfortable to hold and is carefully wax polished so that it will last a very long time.
Handle length: approx. 9 cm
Total length with blade approx. 14.5 cm
Weight: approx. 45 grams
