shaving brush with 21 mm ring,

Black Badger hair handle of high-grade resin black with black metal parts 5-blade razor, compatible with Gillette® Fusion™, Fusion™ ProGlide and

SkinGuard stand made of metal, black

ORGANIC - Shaving cream from MÜHLE (75 ml)

shaving towel (1 pieces)

This all black set is exclusivly available as a gift set. It is not sold as a single piece.

The Material

- High-grade resin

High-grade resin is a high-quality synthetic material, the surface of which is processed and refined separately.

The material is ideal for exclusive accessories and writing implements because it facilitates a broad spectrum of modern and classical designs in many attractive colours.

To begin with, the aesthetic basic shapes for brush and razor handles are turned out of solid rods. Then each individual work piece is polished in several passes to give the surface its special gleam. This processing method lends the models a pleasant feel and secures their beauty for many years to come.

The Brushhead - Black Badger Black Badger hair is substantially firmer than any other badger hair and solid black in color. It suites shavers who value the backbone of a shaving brush and a tangible massage effect rather than the softness.

The careful processing is done mechanically in accordance with the highest standards. The Razorhead - Gillette® Fusion™ The latest shaving system from Gillette® embraces five blades positioned one above the other as well as a precision edging blade located on the back of the cartridge. This design ensures a very close and gentle shave. Its simple and safe handling is ideal even for newcomers.

The blades are available from retailers everywhere. ORGANIC - Shaving cream from MÜHLE Light, smooth consistency with high conditioning factor, enabling the blade to glide effortlessly during the wet shave. Argan oil is particularly rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids. Its valuable active ingredients nourish and protect the skin. Creamy waxes and nurturing glycerine already optimise the hydro-lipid balance of the skin while shaving.

The shaving cream is vegan and contains no synthetic preservatives, aromatic substances or colourants. BDIH certified organic skincare. Shaving towels from MÜHLE, waffle piqué Applied shaving culture: Anyone who has ever been shaved by a barber knows about the delight of perfect shaving preparation which begins by placing a hot towel on the areas to be shaved. MÜHLE shaving towels made of fine waffle piqué are designed precisely for this purpose. Due to its square relief structure the cotton texture absorbs a great deal of moisture and retains the soothing heat during application. After the shave, the soft material pampers once again during cleaning and drying the face.

Decora -  Chocolate mold

Mold Christmas tree for chocolate desserts

Polycarbonate molds decorate are ideal for those who like to personalize and work with chocolate shapes

Christmas tree

2 Cavity Mold size:275 x 175 x 20 h mm

1 Cavity Mold Size : 85 x 105 mm.

Professional mold in polycarbonate, a material that allows you to get shiny and perfect chocolates. It is important to sharpen the chocolate well before pouring it into the mold. The particular shape allows you to combine chocolates together to get 3D figures. Correct tempering is a necessary condition for obtaining glossy chocolate, without streaks, with an inviting and easily deformed appearance. Below are two methods for tempering bright-looking chocolate. In a bain-marie: melt the chocolate at a temperature between 40 ° and 45 ° C. Pour 2/3 of the melted chocolate on the cold surface, preferably marble, and, with the help of the spatulas, work it quickly so as to bring it to a temperature of about 28 ° C. Pour the chocolate into the remaining melted chocolate and mix until a homogeneous mass is obtained and reach a temperature of 32 ° C for dark chocolate, 30 ° C for milk chocolate and 29 ° C for white chocolate. In microwave: melt the chopped chocolate at medium power for about 1 minute. Pull it out of the microwave and mix it. Do this step by minute until the chocolate melts completely. Check that the chocolate has reached the right temperature, ie 32 ° C for dark chocolate, 30 ° C for milk chocolate and 29 ° C for white chocolate. Fill a saà a poche with tempered chocolate and pour it into the cavities of professional polycarbonate molds.

Fallkniven Tre Kronor TK3
The "Tre Kronor" line combines the most modern martensitic technologies with the ancient roots of the Swedish royal family.

Nicolai Lilin, a Russian writer, of Siberian origin, designed  Reactor in memory of the operation of the Russian navy special forces in 2010, near the coast of Somalia, when in 22 minutes two operational corps of the marines rescued from the pirates a kidnapped  merchantile ship   that was carrying oil. On that occasion the militaries could not use firearms to prevent the ship from exploding, so they only used knives. They caught 30 terrorists in 22 minutes. It was a unique operation in the history of international special departments. Reactor is dedicated to all special forces that use white weapons.

As in the ancient swords of the Japanese Samurai.

The laminated steel - imported into Italy by Collini Steel directly from the Japanese Takefu Steel - is based on the ancient Japanese tradition in the creation of the famous Samurai swords. Already in 1100 the Japanese blacksmiths experts in fact united different materials together to give the Katana swords incredible cutting skills combined with a resistance and flexibility previously unknown. It is thanks to this revolutionary construction technique that Samurai swords have been preserved to this day, becoming one of the most fascinating objects created by man. Following this tradition applied to modern metallurgy, we can now have technologically advanced steels already tested and used in cutlery even by famous brands such as Fallkniven, Cold Steel, Mcusta, Kai, Sog, Zwilling, Rockstead, etc.

Characteristics of San Mai steel: These are different types of metals bonded together to create a composite that contains and intensifies the strengths of the metals individually taken:

Japanese laminated steel

- Longer tool life
thanks to the use of very high quality steels with high carbon content (VG10, CoS, Shiro) or sintered (SPG2), in the heart of the slab (Core Steel), the blade, once hardened, achieves decidedly hardness and cutting performance higher than those achieved with the use of traditional steels.

- Greater resilience
built with the principle of Japanese swords, multilayer steel is difficult to break thanks to the toughness of central steel (Core Steel) and the elasticity of the steel used for the side cladding (Stainless Steel).

- Better corrosion resistance
the steel used for the outer layers (Stainless Steel) guarantees the blade a high resistance to corrosion. The combination of the two or more materials used by Takefu Steel generates a galvanic structure that improves corrosion resistance even on the wire.

- Easy processing even after heat treatment
although normally the steel becomes harder after hardening, the lateral steel used in multilayer processing does not lose its softness and allows easy processing, drilling or welding even after heat treatment. For an optimal performance of the blade, a cryogenic treatment is recommended.

- Improvement of aesthetic performance
Knives made with multi-layer steel or with damask patterns at the end of the processing are aesthetically elegant, refined and highly appreciated by collectors all over the world.
