• Damascene the world's most expensive razor for $30,000

    platinum-razor.jpg Damascene Razor worth $30,000 will give your shaving a whole new dimension as it provides you with the world's most expensive shave. The word 'Damascene' attributes to the steel swords made in the vicinity of Damascus, Syria. Homage the Parisian purveyor of luxury grooming equipment, skincare and spa services for men is responsible for creating this limited edition, platinum-sheathed straight razor using the same ancient layering techniques as the Crusaders' swords. The blade of this razor is hand-forged in Germany with 128 layers of legendary Damascene steel, with a rose and torsion pattern. The sheath is laminated in pure platinum to take care of the tarnishing. Hommage has also beautifully taken care of the packing which is in lacquered gift box of Tanzanian anigré wood.

    According to Hommage, "the blade of a Damascus steel sword was said to be able to cut a piece of silk in half as it fell to the ground and was strong enough to cut through a rock without losing its sharpness."
