    Description

    This razor handle was handcrafted by Robert Quinn from Turkish Walnut.  Simply put Turkish walnut is the finest walnut known and highly favored by the world’s finest furniture craftsmen.  It has been known by many names in its’ colorful history. Old world walnut, Kings Fruit, Royal walnut, Soft-shelled walnut, and even as an acorn the Romans knew it as Jupiter’s acorn!  What immediately separates Turkish walnut from its counterparts is age. Turkish walnut trees are often 2 -5 hundred years old. This by its very nature produces fine wood, wood of character full of figure and contrast known as marblecake.   High up on the harsh windy mountains of Turkey the finest grained Turkish walnut grows full of ink-black marblecake laced together with vivid figure, making wood of this class is the most sought after for its working qualities.

    This razor handle is 3.25 inches long and weighs 1.4 ounces.
