Silwer rezor

I had been meaning to get myself a Merkur Futur adjustable razor for a long time. I had seen quite a few YouTube videos, read about Merkur as a company, and with my habit of letting the beard grow during winters, I wanted this razor. Let me assure you, that the results with this razor are phenomenal. Load a good blade, take time preparing for the shave and let the Merkur do its job. It feels hefty in hand. The blade sits perfectly symmetrically. Depending on hair growth one can get an effective shave all the way from 1 up to 6. I have used it on all those settings, and the blade presentation changes very precisely with the adjustment given for the Merkur Futur. I am delighted to have this in my shaving collection. Every time I use it, I am reminded of what a good decision it was to get the Merkur Futur.

There may be a better safety razor out there, but I will never know as I have found the best safety razor I could imagine and will likely stay with this type until my whiskers stop growing. This Merkur Futur arrived in perfect, brand new condition, with zero flaws noted anywhere on/in the razor. The razor is burly yet sleek -i.e. it's "manly". It's perfectly balanced heavy weight (1/4 pound), facilitates the shave processes. It is unmatched in design/engineering, production, quality and reputation (I have used other Merkur shave products); the shave may only be bested by a straight edge shave by a professional. One of the best aspects - is the dial adjust feature built into the razor; no need to remove the razor head and insert different plates, etc.; just dial up/down the desired shave strength. I purchased the brushed chrome version because I find it most aesthetically pleasing -it looks and feels as the highest quality - it also cleans easily, stray soap, other does not seem to stick to the razor (it is wiped down with a clean cloth after each use). To all potential users -beginners to experienced- GO SLOW, especially for the first shaves - this razor is made to shave whatever it is pointed at - if it's pointed/moved in the wrong direction - it will still efficiently cut whatever is in its path. Upon first use it felt very powerful/(aggressive as others say) compared to my other wet shave safety razors. I started with the lowest setting - 1, with a new (Feather brand) blade and the razor, because of its heavy weight and excellent balance, seems to almost shave by itself - the hand is only needed to guide the razor. Set aside a little more time than the usual shave requires, because this is requires focus (until one is accustomed to using it). CAUTION: two areas noted by others that required very careful actions: removing the razor head cap (to extract/insert a blade) and the adjustment function. Both of these actions can be accomplished safely without grabbing the the top/cap of the razor head. The adjustment dial can be turned by holding the razor just below the razor's head with one hand (two fingers) and the lower part of the handle can be turned with the other fingers. The razor head cap has a slight protrusion on one side that is used to lift the cap, from below, using a thumb (lift one side then the other from below. Never grab this razor from the top/by holding the cap from above - especially when a blade is loaded and your hand is wet. It is made to cut anything that is put into its path. I use this daily, with two passes per shave - as more, in my case, is not needed. I highly recommend this Merkur Futur wet shave razor to anyone; the high quality of service provided by Amazon and seller and the absolute best/lowest price for the highest quality are what you will get.

Après des décennies de rasage avec des rasoirs à têtes multilames jetables (scandale écologique du siècle), à prix exorbitants, il est grand temps de revenir aux classiques qui ont fait leurs preuves : le rasoir de sûreté ! Ce Merkur Futur est un modèle du genre. Cela fait presque deux ans que j'hésitais, que je m'informais et que je comparais. Que de temps perdu ! Ce Merkur Futur est parfaitement dessiné et sa prise en main est elle aussi parfaite. Il n'est ni trop gros, ni trop petit. Son poids substantiel lui permet de raser sans que l'on ait à appuyer dessus. Il est BEAU comme tout. Il se règle de 1 à 6 pour l'agressivité du rasage : 1, c'est comme tous les autres rasoirs et 6, la distance entre la lame est la tête du rasoir est maximale. A ce stade, il faut bien connaître sa peau ET le rasoir/la lame. Tout repose sur le choix de la lame et il faut essayer avant de trancher (désolé du jeu de mots). Pour le reste : un bon savon à barbe/crème de rasage, une pierre d'alun bio pour désinfecter et un gel d'aloé vera bio pour nourrir la peau après le rasage (oubliez les après rasages) et VOUS AUREZ UNE PEAU DE BéBé. Ce Merkur Futur rase mieux que tout, il est beau et maniable, mais il faut s'entraîner et se connaître. Cela dit, c'est important, parce que c'est quelque chose que l'homme fait très souvent, alors, autant le faire correctement. P.S. : il est livré avec une lame assez agressive. P.P.S. : après une semaine de rasage, je suis enchanté et je n'ai jamais été aussi bien rasé.

Not for the faint hearted but once you get the technique right and the correct shave setting , this safety razor is a breeze to use, just got to remember to take it easy and do small shave stroke , once confident enough, this razor will give you years of reliable service. Good German made Safety razor.

I felt a bit lazy after shaving with a straight razor for 10+ years, and wanted something simpler. It's a safety razor, and there's no problem shaving with i.e. Feather, just go on have a great shave. It looks great, and it feels great. No problems reaching any areas, youl'll learn. Have a great shave!

This razor is really good and it has a really nice weight in it,,I think it is much heavier than any other razor ou there however this really works for as the extra weight on it lets the razor does the work,you should not add any sort of pressure as if you do so you will be susceptible to nicks,cuts or razor burn,,the adjustability feature works really good and smooth,,I just tried it today on setting number 3 (higher for more aggressiveness and lower for milder setting) and got one of the best shaves I've ever had,,also I didn't face any of the problems that others have mentioned on amazon.com,,like the handle is slippery or it is dangerous when changing blades,,as long as you're cautious in your shave you won't face any problems,,recommend this razor to anyone interested in the DE shaving,,however I don't think it is for beginners as you need to work your skills first before using it but that's me.
