Merkur Long Handled Safety Razor

I had been using King C Gillette since I returned to wet shaving recently. I must say it wasn't a pleasant experience using the King C Gillette razor. I got razor burn with every shave I had. So after watching Geofatboy's review of this Merkur 23C razor I ordered one for myself. I am pleasantly surprised with the results. It is a mild but effective razor, without any razor burn at all. Very easy to grip even with wet fingers and I feel I have a lot of control with the movement of razor too. Most suitable for people with sensitive skin. I was lucky to get it for less than AED 100, (AED 89 exactly) with superb next day delivery by Amazon too. overall I am a happy camper now!

Gives a very good shave

So nice and good quality

It’s working great for about 2 years .

Żal przyjechało uszkodzone używane!!

İşini layıkıyla yapıyor. Hem kullanımı daha kolay hem de açık açık daha iyi kesiyor. Kullan at jiletlerden kullanıyorsanız uzun vadede bunun gibi tıraş bıçaklarına göre kat kat daha fazla para ödüyorsunuz. Epey araştırdım ve resmen bunca yıl soyuluyormuşuz bu kullan atlarla onu fark ettim. Alın kendinize kaliteli bir klasik tıraş bıçağı, ömürlük alın kafanız rahat olsun. Bu ve bunun gibi kaliteli modeller en az bir hiç olmadı 15 20 sene giderler.

Purchased for my father. Quality was excellent.

Me encantó, vengo de una mala experiencia con el King C de gillette y, sinceramente, este rastrillo de Merkur me ha fascinado jajajjajaja Ya venía con una navaja de la marca propia, no me he cortado ni irritado, de verdad magnífico

So I'm new to DE shaving. Went on Amazon and bought the cheapest highly recommend razor, which was a $17 Weishi butterfly style. Felt nice in my hand, and I liked the cool butterfly doors... Then I proceeded to set my face on fire with razor burn, along with bleeding in multiple places. I was like wow these hipsters are silly for going back to DE razors, I knew it was nonsense! But then I looked really closely at the razor, and saw the blade wasn't perfectly spaced. Plus I just felt like I should give another handle a try before I curse DE shaving... Decided on this razor after reading reviews. I liked that it has a long handle and many people said you can shave with it like a normal razor. Haha ya right I thought, I just butchered my face with the Weishi, I highly doubt this will work anything like a regular razor. Well holy oh my god, this razor is the absolute bomb. I cannot believe the NIGHT AND DAY difference from the Weishi. SAME BLADES. When screwing the top on for the first time, after I put a blade in there, I heard a snap/crack. I'm like oh no the screw just broke that people say breaks if you drop this razor... But nope, it was the razor blade bending in half, longways, which makes it more stiff and rigid, and the spacing is PERFECT. It allows you to do whatever you want, however you want. None of this "you need 5 years jedi training to use a DE razor" nonsense. The first pass with Cremo shaving cream was like nothing I was used to. I felt the smooth metal passing over my skin, but after not feeling much, I figured I must have the wrong angle. Except the hair was gone. Huh? But I didn't feel the blade. So then I used a more aggressive angle and I still barely felt the scrape, but the hair was even closer this time. (Always against the grain BTW. Only way to shave in my book.) Wow. So then I'm like ok let's see what this thing can really do... no shaving cream. I want to feel it. Let's see if I can give myself razor burn. Surely you can't do such a thing with a DE razor, right? I mean my experience with the Weishi, I can't imagine not using shaving cream. The result? You don't even need shaving cream. It's that safe/good. You can press hard and angle it properly to get a really close shave too. I was THIS close to throwing the Weishi in the trash and saying DE shaving is for hipsters. But I wanted to be fair about it if I was about to go another 40 years saying it's dumb. Glad I did. I'm hooked now. Oh and the reviews and description saying this razor is nice and light, similar to a plastic handle, are out of their minds. It's a heavy quality handle, there's no mistaking it for anything light. At all.
