Merkur 38C killer?
It looks like Parker have upped their game in every respect with the 98R to deliver a razor that not only feels “just right” but gives you a wonderful shave. It uses the same head found on the Parker 3 piece razors which were released in 2008, a near identical match to the heads on the Merkur 34C and 38C. It really is the lower price true alternative to the 38C that won’t disappoint!

OK, further to my last blog post we’ve had a surprise confirmation that a limited number of Merkur 34C and Merkur 38C will be delivered to us on Monday. We have made them available for preorder on the website so if you place an order now, we should be able to get them out to you on the Monday or the Tuesday.

Merkur currently have a bit of a delay in keeping up with demand for their razors. Consequently it’s looking like March 2010 before we get the likes of the 34C and 38C back in. However, they sometimes surprise us with ad hoc shipments so this is all subject to change! We do have a limited stock available of the adjustable Merkur Futur and the Merkur 33C Classic so buy now while you can!
Don’t forget the Parker range as a cheaper alternative, especially my personal favourites, the Parker 3 Piece razors.

Shaving Shack Mannin Mach 3 Razor
We’ve got some fantastic deals on Mach 3 razors this Christmas! Check out our nickel plated Mach 3 razors, the Shaving Shack “Mannin” and the Shaving Shack “Regent” both only £21.99 saving you a massive £21 or more on the typical retail price!
The nickel plating creates a rust resistant and highly polished surface making it both practical and stylish. I particularly like these handles over the usual polyester as they feel so much more substantial. Definitely an ideal gift for someone this Christmas!
Contemporary Mach 3 Shaving Set (Silver and Chrome Effect)
We’re also pleased to announce that our Contemporary Mach 3 Shaving Set has made it back into our warehouse in time for Christmas. These are exceptionally popular gifts and get excellent feedback from our customers.

Shaving Shack Safety Razor Value Kit
We have created some new double edge starter sets incorporating a choice of our three best selling Parker, twist to open butterfly safety razors.
The first one at £34.99 represents a saving of £4.15 over buying the products individually. We’ve called it the Safety Razor Value Kit as it has everything in it you’ll need to start DE shaving including an Omega bristle brush and Omega shaving cream (the Proraso alternative).
Shaving Shack Safety Razor Starter Kit
The second one, the Safety Razor Starter Kit, has the same choice of Parkers but comes with our striking Buccaneer Pure Badger brush, Omega shaving cream, a blade sample pack (including Feathers, Derbys and Israelis) and some Mitchell’s Wool Fat shaving soap. As with the value kit, it also has a styptic pencil to cope with those inevitable shaving nicks when startting out! If the items were bought seperately it would cost you £60.07 but we’ve lopped off 10% to give it you for a credit crunch busting £53.99 (saving £6.08!).
