Razor used by Baltasar de Silva
The straight razor is a tool and weapon that is mainly used for its intended purposes of manual shaving.
History[]
In the Renaissance, the Italian Templar Baltasar de Silva served as Cesare Borgia's master spy, gathering information for the Borgia family on the Italian Assassins while working undercover as a barber. He often used the hairdresser's tool,[1] made custom by Auguste Oberlin,[2] to lethal effect as an improvised weapon.[1]
In 1852, the former soldier Simeon Price, under the alias of "Jack Straw," received a pearl-handled razor from his new employer and mentor, Oscar Kane. The razor was a gift for Price to use as a means to protect himself.[3] During a winter party at the Baron Julius Jacob von Haynau's home, Kane and the baron's lawyer Karl Mayr reconvened privately only for it to take a turn as Mayr began to strangle Kane. Price soon found and saved his mentor by ultimately using his razor to kill Mayr.[4] After finding out the Templar known as "the Magus" was his own mentor, Price carried his razor in every confrontation against Kane.[5][6]
