Your right Frank. That's one of the things I love about this hobby of ours. :)

Nice one. Yeah 34 c is actually made in three pieces. Not two. See a Lotta peeps describe it as two. I love this piece of kit and for me works just fine. Love how it fits together. Solid, simple, exacting the way it holds the blade whichever one you choose. I love the way the screw thread sits deep within the central piece (ie the mystery third piece) . I'm sure this helps with stability. The short stubbiness makes it easy to use, the weight is perfect. I'm sure I may pick up another razor of some sourghts but for now this is all I need. Great razor.

You are a talented teacher sir!

I find that in my merkur 34c, one side of the blade protrudes out slightly farther than the other side. Is this just my razor? Or is this a trait of many safety razors?

@Listermintsluesh 5 лет назад

Not sure bout that, it should be even as it suppose to be well engineered. U could ask merkur about that. Would of thought unless it's been dropped it should be precise. 😁

I have noticed your question in every time

@peterharrison8756 8 лет назад

Thanks for the video, I returned to DE Shaving after 33 years and i'd been struggling (mix and match) for the first four weeks. Stuck to your guidelines and without getting too confident, i think that sticking with the same products for the first month, is starting to pay dividends. CHEERS

@Cap7597 8 лет назад

I think from what you said I might be holding the blade to steep, when I go against the grain the blade catches quit a bit

@petekadenz2466 2 года назад

I have a question: is a pre-shave really necessary?

@TheJlfalu 7 лет назад

Excelent video,thanks a lot I will lookk for the book you recommended.

@stanleymckinney8916 7 лет назад

Thanks for the insight. i started wet shaving in December.. You mentioned you wet shaved for 3 to 4 months before you could go against the grain, I feel I may be on the same program. Im thinking the more i wet shave my skin will get used to it? or get less irritation.... my neck ares gets pissed when i go against the grain, bad irritation razor bumps, I want a BBS shave, thats why i picked up we shaving. However I'm still getting it. your thoughts? Im using great products lite pressure, I'm watching all the videos,

@Cap7597 7 лет назад

stanley McKinney I know some that have a really hard time with irritation on their neck and other places. One shaver I know does 2 passes WTG and that's it. Another one mainly uses an adjustable razor. Uses the more heavier settings on all areas but his neck. He puts the razor on setting 1 and very very lightly goes over the neck. Try a pre Shave oil, and also try Proraso's pre shave Balm. My neck I use a closer angle. So instead of a 30 degree, I use like a 20 degree. Hold the handle at the very end too, don't choke up. The main thing is keep trying stuff. Everyone is different. But only change one thing at a time so you know what works and what doesn't, if you know what I mean. What razors are u using?

@romanovj1 8 лет назад

Very informative instructional video, well done

@Cap7597 8 лет назад

+Jonathan Romanov Thanks. I was trying to put as much info as I could in one shave. Hard to do. haha

@TallysVids 6 лет назад

Great informative video, especially useful for someone like myself who has only been DE shaving for around a month.

@davidmarshall6339 7 лет назад

Fantastic video for beginners Cap. I know it's an older one but I'm only just getting to see it. Great tips and information. I'll be trying some myself. Regards, David.

@Dev9172 6 лет назад

Good video . I have only shave once so far . I cut the hell out of my chin and kneck . I do not want to give up . I think I just need to learn. I have a mole under my chin . I think I will need to keep using the cartridge razer for that stop .

That's great Eric!!!! Congrats. Keep me posted on how it goes and if you need any help, feel free to ask! Cheers!

@Dev9172 6 лет назад

I had to get back to you . I had my second shave and it went great . I did not cut myself at all . I did use a pre shave oil . It really helped . Then I used Nivea shave cream. Loved it .
