Thank you for sharing diffrence for thouse 2 razors , many have problem with Merkur , i have MingShi ones and I was about to get Merkur but seems is not worth the price for Merkur . No one did this way to compare both of them ,well done . Thank you.
+Outlaw Shaver you would not be the first! One of my nicknames is Blizzard..... just caught sledhead reviewing one of your soaps. Also, congrats on the Wild Wild West Connection
I have also been using the Edwin Jaegger, Mercure, old Gillette, feather for years but now after using the Future clone, I have stopped using any other razor. It is that good. Just remember to assemble it properly.
Yes and it is great for triming a goatee . It will shave you down to a one day growth if you like that look. I do sometimes . But you can not get a close shave . It is not for that . The replacement head cost around $20 . Not cheap . I have had the same head 6 mouths but do not use it much .
It is really safe . You can't cut yourself . Like I said you do not get a close shave but it is not bad , and you can wet shave with it too . He could use good creams or soaps . I think it would be Good for him . It is well made . I like it .
The German made Merkur is much better quality than the Ming Shi, no comparison. The Alloys are different and Quality is second to none. That is what you pay for.
