The Merkur 38C Heavy-Duty Double-Edge Safety Razor heavy duty with the long-handle in the style of a barber pole design and chrome-plated finish is a true classic Merkur blade and one of the most popular.

Perfect for any classic shaving enthusiast to add to their collection or novice wanting to transition from straight razors. The big brother to the bestselling Merkur 34C, the handle of the Merkur 38c HD is one of the heavier safety razors from Merkur razors (over 4.0 ounces) and it is slightly heavier in comparison to other safety razors.

Tailor-made for those who want an exceptional razor that is big and has a heavy handle with heavy-duty heft. The handle finished in silver chrome plating features the classic barber pole design for extra grip adding to its timeless presence. The longer length and brass body combined, adds maneuverability giving you the aptitude to move around the contours of your beard guiding the blade easily, efficiently, and accurately with precision from the first pass to the second pass.

MATERIAL 

The head of the safety razor features a two-piece design (top plate and handle) to maintain blade alignment commanding little utilization of force while shaving which increases the stability of the blade movement and maintains blade angle. In order to ensure a balanced weight distribution for a comfortable shave, a heavyweight brass body is used in the handle for added weight and heavy-duty feel.
