Merkur Saftey Razor



My New Merkur "Open Comb" Double-Edge Safety Razor. Shaving is no longer a chore, but a fulfilling ritual. Made in Germany.

Keep Shaving!

The "Neumann" of razor blades.

Looks very much like what I've been looking for. Why did you go with the open comb over their Futur?

Open Comb offers more of an aggressive shave.

I just picked up a 34C. Awesome, though I probably could have gone straight to this one. Thanks for the posting and the original discussion about it.

Cool - I recommend the "Lord" Double Edge safety blades from Egypt. They seem to offer the smoothest shave with no razor cuts. I have tried the Merkur blades (German - seem to grab a little), Feather blades (Japan - extremely sharp, multiple cuts.) I have ordered some Korean and American blades - should receive them soon - I will let you know. I was shocked to learn how different each brand of blade works and feels.
