The MERKUR 23C was originally developed in the 1920s. Its classic design and reliable quality make it a timeless classic: The long handle and the knob with the cross knurling in diamond shape provide a good grip even with wet, soapy fingers. The straight foam edge of the razor head, proven for 100 years, ensures a smooth shave. With the long handle, shaving flows effortlessly, and the closed comb is a versatile tool for classic wet shaving, suitable for both beard and body. The generous blade gap allows soap and hair to drain well, keeping the blade hygienically clean and free.
