Lovely when things fall into place like this: The owner, named Müller, runs a company fittingly called MÜHLE.
In the Saxon town of Stützengrün, now in its third generation, high-quality grooming tools are crafted for aficionados of traditional wet shaving.
Nowadays, even shaving brushes made of durable synthetic fibres are part of the range—so that all the Grimbärte (that’s the name of the badger in the fable) can keep both their beards and their lives. After all, a badger looks best when he's still wearing his fur.
The ROCCA Series
Crafted from the finest, particularly robust stainless steel.
The surface? Satin-finished – gently matt, pleasing to the eye and smooth to the touch.
The name “ROCCA” – Italian for rock or fortress – hints at top-tier materials and solid build.
Thanks to their ergonomic shape and well-designed texture, the handles fit perfectly in the hand. They’ve got grip – and then some.
The birch bark handle pampers you with a velvety-warm feel. This natural material has proven itself over millennia: highly durable, grippy even when wet, and astonishingly low-maintenance.
And if things really go south? Birch bark even burns when wet – and yes, the inner layer is technically edible. It contains xylitol, a sugar alcohol.
So should the apocalypse arrive and all else fails, you could always boil the handle and see how many shots of schnapps-worth you can distill from the broth.
Why am I suddenly thinking of the 1960s film classic "Rocco and His Brothers"?
Alain Delon, directed by Luchino Visconti.
Grip and brains – in perfect harmony.
