Leather Toiletry Bag, Contrast Stitching

A grooming instrument made the traditional way: forged, ground, and finished by hand rather than stamped out of sheet metal.

Forged, ground and finished by hand — every piece is checked before it is packed, which is what keeps the edge consistent from one instrument to the next.

Rinse after use and dry before putting it away. Stored dry in its case, an instrument like this stays sharp for years rather than months.

The included case is genuine leather, with each instrument held in its own loop so the blades do not knock together in a drawer or a suitcase.

This is the kind of thing people are pleased to be given: useful every week, better made than what they would buy themselves, and ready to hand over in its case. Suits any occasion, from Christmas to a housewarming.

• Sharpened and checked by hand
• Genuine leather case included

Photography is illustrative. Finish, leather grain and set contents may vary from the images shown.

Dry the instrument after contact with water and return it to its case. Stainless steel resists corrosion but is not immune to it, and standing moisture dulls an edge faster than actual use.

The instrument can be sterilised. A forged edge holds its cut for years of regular use; when it finally softens, any competent sharpening workshop can reset it.
