The AS-D2S Razor:
Weight: 91g
Length: 98mm
Handle diameter 11.1mm
handle length: 92mm
Made in Japan by the Feather Safety Razor Co. Ltd.
The knurled handle has a nice deep knurl to ensure a firm grip.
The face has 'FEATHER ALL STAINLESS RAZOR' etch washed into the face.
Internally the top plate has raised corners that the blade sits in, the demanding tolerances Feather use ensures the blade sits exactly bang on centre to give an even blade exposure on either side of the cutting head.
The Razor Stand:
The Stand for the Feather AS-D2S Safety Razor is minimalist, elegant and very functional.
Handmade in Japan from the finest steel hence its expensive price tag.
The optimum shaving angle needed for the Feather is around 45° to the face compared to most DE razors which vary from 15-30 degrees. The AS-D2 works best with Feather Razor Blades as this combination has an extremely sharp blade set in a non-aggressive razor leading to less irritation, razor burn and razor bumps.
How to Use:
Ensure the face is well lubricated using a pre shave treatment and a shaving soap, cream or gel.
Shave with the razor at a 45° angle to your face using a sharp blade.
Stretch your skin as you shave ensuring the area you are shaving is pulled tight.
We recommend that you shave twice with the grain and once against the grain.

An all time classic, highly effective and beautiful to look at and use. Many say the AS-D2 is the greatest ever safety razor.
