The first choice for true professionals: traditional, standardized Blades

When it comes to a perfect shave, barbers do not use system razors or disposable blades.

These blades not only deliver a precise result but also meet the high standards of hygiene and efficiency that are indispensable in professional daily use.

Hygiene at the highest level

In a barbershop, cleanliness is the top priority. Here, every razor blade is changed after treating a customer. Traditional Half blade make this quick, hygienic change possible without elaborate cleaning or complicated mechanisms. This consistent freshness with every shave protects the skin and provides a secure feeling.

Constant sharpness thanks to the best materials

Traditional Blades are made of high-quality stainless steel and are often additionally coated with platinum or Teflon. This combination ensures that the blades are extremely sharp and maintain their cutting performance over multiple uses. In professional shaving practice, this reliability counts: Every shave should feel like the first with a new blade.
