History Merkur

Merkur was founded in 1896 by the manufacturer Emil Hermes in Solingen in Germany. Because another producer had already claimed the name Hermes, Hermes used the name Merkur. Merkur is the Roman god of trade. Merkur has been producing classic safety shears in which the Double Edge fits razor blades from the start. Merkur has various patents to her name for different models of razors. The Rhavermessen manufacturer DOVO took over Merkur in 1996. This makes DOVO Merkur one of the largest products of classic razors worldwide.

The Safety Shears from Merkur

The most popular classic razors from Merkur have a shaving head with a closed comb. The razor is well salvaged because of the closed comb, so that the razor shaves pleasantly and comfortably.

The Merkur Safety Razor 38C, 34C, 43c. Progress and Futur have a two -part shaving head. The lower half of the shaving head is attached to the handle. Screw the upper half on the lower shaving head. This allows you to easily put razor blades.

The other razors have a three -part system. The shaving head consists of 2 separate halves and screws you on the handle. You clamp the loose razor blade here.

In addition, some razors have a shaving head with a tooth comb. Double Edge Raarshemje is more exposed because of the toothed shaving head. This shaves this razor a little more aggressively. Handy for shaving the stiff heavy beard growth or if the beard hairs have a nice length after a few weeks.

The Merkur Slant Bar has a sloping shaving head. The razor makes a more cutting movement. This makes shaving the heavy beard growth slightly smoother and more efficient.

The Merkur Progress and Futur have an adjustable shaving head. By means of a screw mechanism you can adjust the height of the upper shaving head up or down. This makes the razor shave slightly milder or more aggressive. So you can tune this type of razor to your personal shaving technique.

Naturally, Merkur also has its own Double Edge razor blades. The shaving property of these razor blades is medium sharp.
