If you are in a position to do so - buy one. You will not be disappointed. There is quite a bit of love for them around these parts.anyone used or own a Merkur 45 bakelite razor?
thoughts?
For me having moved to SEs, its the only the DE I have kept hold of. I'm no expert in DEs, it shaves really nicely. Smooth and close. Efficient is another way I'd describe it. I read somewhere on TSR that it could be the curve of the blade from the top cap - that adds to the angle of the shave. I use Astra's with the 45, & no grumbles.
Bit of a novelty value with the aesthetics. Looks good, and handles very easily. Although it's light no pressure is needed. Simply fuss free
