Merkur 34c HD Safety Razor

I too was fed up paying silly prices for replacement blades from my Gillette so I decided to give this a try. After a little bit of practice I soon got the feel for this razor. The quality of the shave is the without a doubt the best I have ever experienced. Until you have tried it you won't know what you are missing.

I am using this Razor for month now and I cant say anything wrong about it. Good grip. Nice weight easy to use and great shave.

Great starter razor.

I used a mach 3 for 12 years and hated shaving. I purchased this last month after reading a load of good reviews and it didn't disappoint. The razor gives a great shave. Very close with a feather blade. Shaving is no longer a chore. I love it....

After realising that the multiblade cartridge razors, 'in my opinion' quality has slipped recently together with the ever increasing price, it was time for action. After a friend recommended trying a traditional DE razor and shave and watching numerous videos on the net it was time to act. Recommended to me by my experienced wetshaving friend was this product 'Merkur 34c'. Simply down to the fact that it is well made, competitively priced and an excellent razor to start DE shaving with i.e not too aggressive. The item came by post as stated promptly with sound packaging along with other shaving items purchased. The razor comes with one Merkur blade to get you started, so might be an option to purchase other blades for convenience. After using the razor and various different blades along with pre/post shaving cream and shaving soap with lather created with badger brush I am hooked and am loving the BBS feel. Goodbye to burns, rashes, cuts and ingrowing hairs. Can now shave every 2 days with a blade lasting 3 shaves comfortable. My skin feels as good now as ever. Don't be afraid of it, try it take your time, persevere and you wont regret it.

Have this about a year now and no regrets. Nice and weighty, rinses easily, easy to change blades. Its my first DE razor but I don't see a need to change it!

The Merkur 34c is a Fantastic little razor that feels weighty in the hand. I found the 34c very easy to use. I'm looking forward to trying the razor with different blades. Delivered half way around the globe in 7 days; thank you Shaving.ie

I was a user of a Mach3 but with Merkur 34C we are on another planet. The 34c is precise and very stable, just aggressive. I have tried the Merkur blade but now I want to see what happens with Personnas and Feathers that I bought. Shaving is perfect in service and very speed in delivery.

This is a bit of a revelation for me, having used cartridge razors for the past 25 years or so. Found it relatively easy to learn to shave with, and by using pre-shave was able to avoid any nicks. Love the feel of the hot steel head against my skin - something you don't get with a cartridge razor.
