This has to be my favorite none aggressive razor. It is inspired by the legendary Vintage Gillette 1904. The design of the handle is second to none, it feels great when held in the hand. The etching on the handle and in an elegant grip to avoid the razor slipping off soapy or wet hands. This is probable the least aggressive razor in the Merkur line. The razor is forgiving to those who apply pressure when shaving (recommended not to), and getting the angle right is a walk in the park. I usually use a naturally sharp blade like (feather stainless steel) or a new blade , when shaving with this razor. Despite I enjoy razors with big handles, this little boy fits and weighs perfectly in my hand. A very easy to clean razor, and looks amazing as well. Perfect for travelling. This Razor is able to last ages of handled with proper care. Enjoy !
