Men's Biz Quickview Men's Biz Quickview

The Merkur 1904 Double Edge Razor is modelled on the original 1904 Gillette DE razor. While it shares the same head design as the Classic, the Merkur 1904 has a beefier six-sided handle that some find easier to get their mitts around. The handle also features a handsome, hand-tooled diamond pattern which gives the razor an antique appeal. Stylish nickel plated finish. Made in Solingen, Germany and covered by a 2 Year Australian Warranty.

Includes one free Merkur Super Platinum Double Edge Razor Blade to get you started. Replacement blades sold separately.

Have really enjoyed using this razor since I bought one several weeks ago. It is easy to use and keep clean. It gives you a fantastic shave every time and has a classic aesthetic about it which is very pleasing. I recommend this razor.

I've used this razor for some time now and am very happy with it. It's a quality razor, especially for the price, and the detailing on the handle is a nice touch. The only negative aspect for me is that the handle is quite short, but that is not a reflection on the quality of the razor itself.

For the price of a carton of beer, you can pick up a tool that will pay for itself many times over compared with the cost of Gillette cartridges. If you're tossing up between this and the $30 plastic Feather brand razor, I'd take this one any day.

For years I have persevered with the various multi-bladed cartridge razors (and a couple of electrics) but have never been totally happy with the results. After my first shave with my new razor I am definately converted - this is the closest and easiest shave I have had in a long time! No clogged blades or dragging through the whiskers...

The handle of the Merkur is quite a bit shorter than my old razor (a Gillette Sensor) which took a few minutes to get used to but once I had figured out how to hold it, it felt quite natural.

My only negative comment is that when my razor arrived, it wasn't a smart black and silver like it appears in the picture on the website but a cheapish looking stainless steel finish. This doesn't effect the performance of the razor at all, it just wasn't what I was expecting.

I am actually looking forward to my next shave!
