Product Care
| Before each use, prepare the blade by stropping it on a leather strop to realign the edge and maintain optimal sharpness. After each shave, rinse the blade thoroughly under warm running water to remove all hair, shaving cream, and residue. Carefully dry the blade with a soft cloth, ensuring no moisture remains on the edge or pivot area to prevent corrosion. Apply a light coat of blade oil to the blade after drying to further protect against moisture and maintain its premium Japanese stainless-steel performance. Store the razor in a dry place. Avoid leaving it in humid environments such as closed bathrooms when not in use. Periodically hone the blade as needed to restore the edge to optimal sharpness. Frequency depends on usage and stropping technique. Clean the handle gently with a soft, damp cloth. Do not submerge the handle, as prolonged exposure to moisture can affect the mother-of-pearl finish and inner mechanisms. With proper care, the Ghost by Bass Blades Traditional Fixed Blade Straight Razor will provide decades of smooth, luxurious shaves and maintain its exquisite craftsmanship. |
