Author: William Black So, I've worn a full beard for over two decades but I've been to India for a couple of years where you don't wear a full beard because it's not comfortable in the summer heat there.
In India you can get a shave in a good barber shop for about 20p, but in the UK it's about �15!
On returning home I'd brought proper soap and a brush with me, but the only razors I could get in India were either the single edged 'cut-throat' things that take half a razor blade or a ghastly plastic safety razor that wasn't any good at all and threatened to fall to bits at every shave.
My old Gillette (a present in 1966 when I was 13) had long since disapeared and so it was time to either go for something complicated and modern or get a decent safety razor.
I bought the Merkur because I liked the look of the long handle.
It gives an excellent shave, is easy to control and feel good in the hand. I'd recommend it to anyone.
Author: Scott Dunn I've just had my first shave with the 23C & have to say I'm absolutely delighted. I found it nice to hold & managed a good close shave. The longer handle makes it much easier to control, very reassuring. So a good shave & something that looks stylish as well!
Author: Nick Pinn A fantastic razor for newcomers or old hats at DE shaving. Very mild yet gives a close comfortable shave and is easy to manouver, and very forgiving. I have used it for 2 months and have yet to cut myself. Excellent value for money, a complete steal at just over �20.
