The Damascene Razor is a limited edition handcrafted platinum sheathed straight razor created by Hommage using Damascene Steel. Consisting of 128 individual layers, this razor will run you $30,000 US, but the closeness of the shave will be unparalleled. 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.”

You now have access to a level of sharpness second to none. Just make sure that you don’t have your morning coffee prior to shaving. The last thing you need is jittery hands with this blade as you’ll need more then a couple of pieces of tissue paper to seal the cuts.
