Swedis steel is used to forge this razor by Dovo in Solingen, Germany. Dovo is well known for their shaving products.
The carbon steel blade has many advantages. Carbon is easier to sharpen, The blade generally holds an edge better. However, if not dried properly a carbon blade will rust.
The blade of your open straight razor has a very fine and vulnerable cutting edge. Cutting materials other than the beard hair may damage or destroy it. Careful stropping of the blade before shaving maintains the blade’s cutting ability for several months.
Caution is advised as too much pressure on the strop can damage the fine cutting edge. After use, the blade and handle have to be cleaned and dried carefully. In case of long term storage, the blade should be lightly lubricated, entirely covered by oil.
