AAARGH, those years I wasted on Mach 3's!, 31 Jan. 2013
I was always curious about straight razor shaving for a long time, but the expense was intimidating. On a lark, I did some research on wet shaving, and found out about DE/Safety Razors. The Merkur brand was pretty common, and the price was right. I paired this up with Tabac shave soap, Feather razor blades, and a badger hair brush, and WOW!.The shave I get is so much smoother, and the irritation is almost non existant. I do not need a balm anymore. I can just rinse off with cold water, throw on a little witch hazel, and I am good to go. I even noticed that my skin on my neck has cleared up, no bumps or pimples that used to form from shaving.All this, and because of the inexpense of razor blades and shave soap vs. the cartridges and foam, I am saving probably over a $100 a year easily. This razor paid for itself in a just a few months, and now it is all profit!

Long handled wonder, 25 Mar. 2010
The 23C is basically the Merkur HD head on a longer handle.However Its Thinner and less weighty than the similar Merkur 38C 'Barber pole'.The Razor provides a very similar shave to both, but due to the balance tipped slightly towards the head is easier to learn techniquefor beginers to DE shaving.I own a great many DE razors and i have found myself often using this razor as my 'go to'.Its very elegant yet still has the solid Merkur build quality.

German quality at its best, 4 Feb. 2013
This razor is exceptional the handle is four inches long with a knurled pattern which ensures a firm grip even with wet soapy fingers. It really is worth every penny. The quality of the shave is outstanding with no issues even for a novice like me.
