"I really liked using my Merkur safety handle. I had my original for a long time and liked it so much that after getting way too much use out of it, I bought it again. It's light, great balance, easy to hold and very easy to clean. Really recommend it."
"Had the razor for almost a year and loved it. Until yesterday when the head came loose, I went to tighten it and the stem snapped which released the razor in my hand. Now I got 7 stitches and a week of pay lost due to recovery. I can't say I'd buy it again"
"My first non Gillette Tech razor was a Merkur. This razor has the same head as the chunky Merkur, but sports a wonderful, non-slip grip handle that is lighter than the original. I bought the long handle version of this when Kent first started their shave supplies, but this shorter handled version will be my go to razor. The shave is a bit more aggressive than a Gillette Tech, but easy to handle. The fit and finish of this razor is great, and the chrome and black looks mighty fine on the shelf."
"Fabulous shaver! Terrific handle, grippy and easy to hold on to in the shower. Would highly recommend!"
"Okay so I got this razor a good long while ago, and did a maintenance shave with it when I first got it. I absolutely love the feel of the grip in my hands, I have no fears whatsoever that I'm going to drop it, or it's going to slip. It's nicely weighty, so it feels solid, without being unwieldly. The length means I don't have to turn into a contortionist to get my ankles, and I have no fears working up the back of my legs. Having only ever used plastic / cartridge razors in the past, I was a little concerned about the ease of conversion, but the staff in the Bank Street store (major shout out to Meghan!) gave me the right advice, and pointed me in the direction of the right tools. After that first shave, and loving how close it got, without any sign of irritation or dryness from friction, I figured I should do a stress test, and proceeded to not shave for 2 months (which doesn't sound like much, but my legs don't grow in evenly). After today's shave I can honestly say this is the *best* razor I have ever used. The blade change mid-calf was super easy, and fast. It took all the hair in one pass, while cartridges would have needed three or more. My skin feels fantastic, and I cannot advocate this product enough. It's an amazing razor, and I highly recommend it for those who want a better shave on their legs, especially for beginners."
"Amazing tool! The grip on the handle makes it easy to maneuver, likewise it’s slenderness allows for better grip ability. Ergonomically speaking, you can get a precise follow through and avoid too much pressure as you shave."
"This razor is very comfortable to hold and was fairly easy to get at tricky areas even the first time I used it. It's easy to change blades and the razor itself looks very good."
"Still trying to perfect it but it's getting a closer shave every time I use it,"
"This is my first safer razor. I grew up with cartridge razors and learned about this style when I was looking at the straight edge razors. I am really pleased with the Merkur 20C. It looks great, has a long handle that allows for flexibility when holding the razor, and it gives a nice, close shave."
"I like the weight of the razor, but definitely needs the best quality blades or it doesn’t work properly."
