The MERKUR 41C is an angled safety razor designed for coarse and dense beard growth. With its substantial weight and angled razor head, it effortlessly and thoroughly tackles even the toughest tasks. Its fans call it the Sledgehammer, the hammer for heavy-duty jobs. With the Barber Pole textured handle, you have it securely and comfortably in your hand. Angled safety razors are characterized by the twist in the comb and cap around the longitudinal axis. This makes the blade stiffer and provides a sharper shaving angle. The large blade gap of the closed comb is ideal for the flow of foam and hair, keeping the edge clean.
