The Merkur 39C Slant Bar Double Edge Safety Razor, known by its nickname, the "sledgehammer", is unlike any other traditional wet shaving razor your grandfather had!

The 39C is the big brother of the 37C, differing only in its longer, heavier handle, while the 37C features a shorter, lighter grip. Simply put, the Merkur 39C Slant isn't a safety razor for the faint of heart. Featuring a more aggressive slant bar construction, which gives the razor a feel similar to a straight razor. This razor has a 90-degree slant and offers an aggressive shave, a smooth shave, suited for experienced wet shavers who want the best of both shaving worlds. A straight razor shave with a double-edge razor.

The Merkur 39C is larger, thicker, and weightier with an overall length of 4 inches. This is one of the most extraordinary safety razors on the market. Made from the highest quality craftsmanship that you come to expect from Merkur razors. The Merkur 39C, when used properly, delivers an extremely fine shave and the closest shave that can be matched by none other.

MATERIAL

The Merkur 39C Slant Sledgehammer Barber Pole Safety Razor is designed to last a lifetime! The head of the safety razor is produced using a zinc die-casting process, creating a DE razor with maximum precision, even for intricate contours. The slanted shaving head may sound like a manufacturing fault, but it is absolutely designed for slicing coarse hair when shaving. The slanted head design and the angle of the blade make it much more effective at cutting hair, feeling more like a beard mower, effortlessly cutting through thick stubble and facial hair. For weight distribution and balance, the long handle is built with a brass body. The chrome finish protects the razor from corrosion and underlines the high-quality design.

PRODUCT DETAILS

The Merkur 2-piece double edge safety razor design with slanted blade guard is characterized by the comb and top plate that are twisted against each other along the longitudinal axis. The slant bar construction, therefore, is very rigid, providing a sharper shaving angle which gives it a more aggressive shave and a close shave. Used with focus and attention, you will achieve extraordinary shaving results.
