Review: Stylish and smooth DE razor - I have a small collection ! :), of DE razors that i have acquired over the years. DE shaving can easily become a bit of a hobby / obsession :) I bought this Merkur 20c long handle here on desertcart in June 2016 and it has become my go-to favourite. It looks stylish, the matt black (aluminium) long knurled handle gives a good grip and the shave head is very smooth and forgiving - i get none or very few nicks using this razor. Build quality is very high and both the chrome head and the black handle look as good now as on day 1 after more than 2 years of use. Compared to other DE razors, i would say its a medium but smooth shave head - it really is a good design. Only 2 small gripes - the spiral knurled handle holds soap in the grooves and needs cleaning a little more regularly, but its not a huge issue - you need an old toothbrush or just let the razor soak in hot water for a while to clean the handle. Up side is that the handle has really good non-slip grip when shaving. Secondly its a three piece razor, so takes a fraction longer to change blades - again, not a big issue. This razor head works well with any type of blade, but its smooth nature means it works a little better with a slighlty more aggressive blade type. When i am travelling or need a knick-free shave guaranteed, i can just put a mild blade in and its almost as forgiving as a cartridge razor, but you still get a DE close shave. 10/10 highly recommended (BTW, Merkur do a short handled version of this same razor, confusingly called the 30c.)

So after much checking on he various men's grooming sites & reviews decided to go for this. I'm very impressed. The razor has substantial weight so it gives a sense of presence; the razor is well-balanced and has a good grip and feel in the hand; the shave is 'mild' rather than aggressive ... I've used it for 5 days and am yet to feel any discomfort, burn, nick or need for the styptic pencil. It comes with a single Mercur blade but I've also bought a selection pack of 25 blades from Shave Lounge of Lancaster (England) to test for best match for me. A very satisfied customer. :) PS I’ve now had it for 3 months and am still delighted with it. It is a very mild shave & to supplement it for the occasions I’ve grown a long growth (I’m reminded of the lawn in my garden now 🙄) I’ve just ordered a Rockwell 6S adjustable d/e razor. Hey, I’m a fly angler, of course I’ve got more than one rod/reel/fly ... golfers will go with this 😉 ## Frequently Bought Together - Merkur Double Edge Blade Razor, Black - Merkur Razor Double Edge Razor Blades, MK-911, 10 Count (Pack of 1) - Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood Shaving Cream Bowl, 5.3-Ounce --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/48388845-long-handled-razor-black-chrome](https://www.desertcart.at/products/48388845-long-handled-razor-black-chrome) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
