SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Böker King Cutter Black Straight Razor is a timeless tool crafted for those who appreciate tradition, quality, and precision in their daily shave. Since the early 20th century, the King Cutter has been a cornerstone of Böker’s renowned straight razor line, trusted by men across generations for its reliability and performance. Built in Solingen, Germany—world-famous for blade-making—it reflects over a century of expertise and craftsmanship.
The heart of this razor is its 5/8-inch carbon steel blade. Forged from Solingen straight razor steel, it’s honed to an extra-hollow grind with belly, delivering the keen edge and effortless glide needed for a smooth, close shave. The round point design adds a layer of safety, making it approachable even for those newer to straight razor shaving. Each blade bears the authentic Böker tree stamp, a mark of heritage and quality that ensures you’re using a genuine piece of Solingen tradition.
The handle of the King Cutter Black is made from durable, moisture-resistant synthetic material, polished to a sleek finish that complements the blade’s refined blue-polished surface. A nickel silver inlay of the Böker tree emblem is painstakingly set into the handle by hand, highlighting the razor’s elegant balance of function and artistry. Serrations on both sides of the tang provide a secure grip, giving you confidence and control during every shave.
This straight razor doesn’t just perform—it connects you to a long-standing ritual of craftsmanship and grooming excellence. It arrives in historic packaging, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, making it as collectible as it is functional. Whether you’re just starting your journey with straight razors or adding another classic to your shaving arsenal, the Böker King Cutter Black is designed to deliver a shave worthy of its name.
