Merkur & Dovo HD 34C Safety Razor Chrome 8cm

Product Information

I found this razor to be quite brutal if you used a heavy hand and I often resembled a slasher victim. Für mich ist jetzt Rasur so was wie "Wellnes fürs Gesicht" geworden, etwas, dass ich ganz bewusst mache und mich konzentriere. I place the carefully unwrapped blade in the top plate on the pegs and screw the razor together again. An additional effect of the slanted blade is the tendency of the movement in the direction of the blade.

The two-piece razor head, made from chrome-plated die-casted zinc, lacks parts to break so it withstands many blade changes. Or you might want to check out the 37c Slant, like the 34c except with a slightly more aggressive slanted razor head.The Groomed Man was established in 2011 with a view to providing everything you need for a traditional wet shave all in one place. The movement at right angles to the cutting edge and with the razor head slightly tilted (about 30°) resembles a carpenter’s plane. Feathers for when I need something extremely sharp in a mild razor and PolSilvers for more aggressive razors and an alum stick for a Feather in my R41.

This is a three part razor and the cap and guard/mount unscrew from the handle to allow for easy insertion of the blade and cleaning of parts.

It’s aggressive enough so that it will deliver a close, comfortable and smooth shave, but it’s not going to punish you for every little mistake. Ich habe nach dem Umstieg keine blutigen Stellen durch Cuts und so gehabt und kann alle nur ermutigen, diesen Schritt zu machen. The matching base allows for easy blade swapping and also adds the finishing touch to an eye catching razor. Plastic free: the razor and the stainless-steel blades are packaged exclusively in paper and cardboard. All DE razor blades are a standardised size and shape and therefore any DE blades you purchase will be compatible with this razor.

Everything about the 34C safety razor except the Merkur 34G comes plated in gold instead of chrome, making it also a pretty women's safety razor. The Merkur 34C is the sort of item which will last your lifetime: excellent quality and very solidly made - so you don't want to go dropping it in your ceramic washbasin! With the beginning of the 20th century, safety razors with a classic double-edge blade became the successors of the straight razors for everyday use. Three-piece razors such as models 33001, 23001 or 24001 are suitable for beginners and all skin areas with their universal blade gap.

It's definitely cheaper, (in the long run), as each blade lasts 6/7 days and produces far less waste, which was one of the main reasons I decided to make the switch - no plastic to throw away at all, and the blades will eventually end up in metal recycling. The masculine knurling and the beautiful engravement of the Merkur logo the Greek god Hermes the god of good fortune and mischief is definitely gorgeous enough to display in a proper stand and badger brush. I'm used to all the bells and whistles that usually come with the products I test, but the 34c didn't have any of that. It is commonly referred to as the Merkur “Heavy Duty” and I’ve also seen it marketed as the “Merkur Classic 2-Piece Double Edge Safety Razor”. The construction is almost 100 years old and entails markedly higher tolerances than modern blade systems.

The Merkur 34c heavy duty comes with a heavy-duty short handle, and one of the thickest handle diameters around.
