"I bought this Razor and have really enjoyed shaving with it. As suggested it takes a little getting used to gives a lovely shave. Great product - and great service from the team."

"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 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! "

"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."

"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."
