Merkur Classic 1904 / 1906 Safety Razor with Bar

Great first double edge razor

This is my first double edge razor and it worked very well. The weight and finish are very good but I think I might like a little bit longer handle.

disappointed

I was really looking forward to shaving with this razor, however when I finally did it performed poorly. It took way too many passes to achieve a smooth shave. I will not be using this razor anymore because in my opinion it's just not worth it.

Great for women, too!!

I was drawn to the retro 6 sided design of this razor, so this was my 1st purchase from WCS. Delivery was very fast! The handle is short (but not too short) for women and is easy to use. It has great weight and grip. When paired with an Astra blade, this razor provides an efficient and very forgiving shave.
