00:00Okay, so if you've ever tried shaving with a cheap plastic razor and thought,
00:03there has to be a better way, you're absolutely right and it costs less than your morning coffee.
00:08I spent way too long digging through hundreds of listings to find the 5 best wooden handle
00:13straight razors out there right now, the ones barbers actually keep in their kits.
00:17Real wood, real steel, real close shaves.
00:21Let's get into it.
00:23First up is the Professional Vintage Straight Edge Barber Razor with the stainless steel frame
00:27and wooden manual handle.
00:30This one's the crowd favorite for a reason, nearly 4,700 sold and a 4.9 rating,
00:35which is honestly hard to argue with.
00:37The standout here is that stainless steel body paired with the warm wood grip,
00:41so it doesn't get slippery when your hands are wet.
00:44It's a Chevette style, so no blade is included, you just drop in a standard half blade and you're good.
00:50At 775, it's the safest bet on this whole list.
00:54Next, we've got the new color wood handle Barber Straight Razor.
00:59What I like about this one is exactly what the name says, you get options on the wood finish,
01:03so if you're a barber who likes your tools to actually look good on the station, this is the one.
01:08It's stainless steel through the body with a proper manual folding action,
01:12and it's built for salon use, not just home shaving.
01:16688 is the lowest-ish price here and over 4,700 people have grabbed it.
01:21Solid daily driver.
01:23Coming in third is the Pro Wood Handle Barber Straight Razor with the Zinc Alloy build.
01:28Now, this one's sitting at a perfect 5-star rating across 4,000 orders, and that's rare.
01:34The Zinc Alloy makes it a little heavier in the hand, which sounds like a downside but it's
01:38actually not, that weight helps the blade glide instead of you pressing down, and that's how you
01:42avoid razor burn. 672 makes it the cheapest on the list, and honestly, at that rating, it's a steal.
01:50Fourth up, the Professional Folding Barber Razor with the Wood Handle.
01:55This is the most premium-feeling one in the lineup, it's $9.54, so it's the priciest here,
02:00but you're paying for a smoother folding mechanism and a chunkier, more substantial handle.
02:05If you're cutting hair all day and doing lineups and neck cleanups, that folding action matters,
02:10because you're opening and closing this thing constantly.
02:13Ratings of 4.5 with 3,800 sold, so it's proven.
02:18Worth the extra couple bucks if you use it professionally.
02:22And rounding out the list, the Professional Barber Straight Razor,
02:25Single Blade Edge, Wood Handle.
02:27This one's built specifically for that super close shave, think bald head maintenance,
02:32beard lines, hot towel shaves, that kind of work.
02:35Another perfect 5-star rating with over 3,600 sold, and it's 726.
02:41No blade included again, so grab a pack of doubles with it.
02:45If you want one razor that just does the close work really well, this is it.
02:50Alright, that's the 5.
