At the heart of the set is the lightweight and balanced Merkur 23C razor. It has a closed comb and a medium-low aggressiveness, which means it is forgiving of mistakes and does not damage the skin. The handle length is comfortable for all hands, and the chrome plating feels good in the fingers and doesn’t slip. Changing blades is easy: the razor can be disassembled into three parts.
The set includes 10 Merkur branded blades — enough to last you for weeks. And the metal razor stand keeps your razor organized: it’s easy to put away after shaving, no need to hide it in a drawer, no moisture build-up.
