HAVE A GOOD DAY GENTLEMEN
I've toyed with the idea of the Bakelite Merkur, Pat...what's your thoughts?
Thanks for that, Pat. I use a Wilkinson Sword Classic as part of a Palmolive Stick/Omega 'Mixed Midget' travel combo. I used to use my 1968 Travel Tech; but don't want to run the risk of losing the wee guy, hence the WS.The Merkur 45c I use as a travel razor, I bring it out of its box every now and again to use in my rotation as it's different to my heavier razors and a bit of fun to use.
In saying that I'm always impressed with the shave I get from this little razor, performing well and getting a nice close shave.

It's nice to be seeing more straight razors on here lately.Tim Zowada Damasscus
