MERKUR30C Safety Razor

I have had this razor for 4 years and I don’t think I will use or buy any other razor! The razor is well balanced and a very elegant design.Although more expensive than buying a Gillette razor with cartridges in the long run it is so much cheaper to buy single razor blades than cartridges, the blades last longer and I feel you get a much closer shave.

This is a lovely little razor! Beautifully made and finished, it is both lightweight and very compact (smaller and lighter than I expected). The black part of the handle is textured hard anodised aluminium, and gives a very grippy surface when wet, as well as looking very classy with the the contrast to the two shiny end pieces (in my opinion!) The head is the standard Merkur 3-part, and gives a mild but highly efficient shave. Maybe not so well suited to wild, tough beards, but just great for everything else. This should be a very 'safe' razor for newcomers to DE shaving, and because it is very lightweight and maneuverable, it should be an easy transition for someone used to a plastic disposables. Highly recommended!

Good product, maybe a bit to light though. But for the size you can't expect to have much weight.

Effective and slick looks.

Er ist klein, leicht und sehr handlich.Für Anfänger gut geeignet,da sanft und trotzdem gründlich.Besonders bei den Problemzonen,wie Nase und Unterlippe ist er bestens geeignet.Verarbeitung ist erstklassig.Made in Germany!!!

La maquinilla tiene el peso adecuado para un afeitado muy cómodo.

My first safety razor, and I still have it years later

Die ersten paarmal gewöhnungsbedürftig. Weil Kopflastig, der Griff könnte schwerer sein. Dann währe das Gewicht gleichmäßiger verteilt. Aber sonst sehr Gutes Gerät.
