The Merkur 15C has a shorter handle than most Merkur safety razors but it is still comfortable and easy to handle. The handle is made from galvanised brass and has a textured grip so you can easily control the flow of the razor on your skin.

It has a three-piece assembly where the comb and top plate screw into the handle. The plate and comb protect your skin from the blade while still allowing you to have an effective, close shave. Also, the design of the comb means that it should not get clogged and thus make it an ideal choice if you have longer, thicker body hair.

For a longer handle version see the Merkur - DE Safety Razor 25C, Open Comb

The open-tooth comb is designed to quickly cut long hair for reducing blade vibration. It also helps to avoid clogging thanks to the soap flow.

This razor is ultra controllable and will last for years to come no matter what your personal requirements are - give up throwing away a plastic razor every week and try low waste shaving.

Replacement Blades

You do not need to worry about sharpening this razor - just pop in another blade when you need it. This means you don't need to buy or use any strops or honing stones.
