The Merkur HD 38C is tailor-made for those who want a great razor that has a large and heavy handle for heavy-duty heft. The barber pole handle is finished in a matte black anodized aluminum finish, which gives it a contemporary and sophisticated classic design and a timeless presence. Perfect for any classic shaving enthusiast looking to add a good quality safety razor to their collection.

The Merkur Heavy Duty is also one of the heavier safety razors from Merkur razors (over 4.0 ounces) and it is slightly heavier in comparison to other safety razors. The longer length and brass body combined, adds maneuverability giving you the ability to move around the contours of your beard guiding the blade easily, efficiently, and accurately for a precise close and comfortable shave.

MATERIAL 

The head of the safety razor features a two-piece design (top plate and handle) to maintain blade alignment commanding little use 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.
