Merlin Straight Razor

My Merlin was super sharp, and ready to use out of the box! Well balanced, very light, smooth movement on the pivot, and beautifully finished! A little more pointy at the toe and heel compared to my Solomon. A great shave!

I won’t go back to cartridges!

This razor really stepped up my shaving. I will never use another cartridge razor.

Nice shaving razor

The Dodinel carries a good weight and balance. This razor has a good edge out of the box and gave a good 1st shave.

Great blade

Mine did have a small crack in the resin inlay upon arrival, it doesn't affect the shaving. Perfect size blade that is easy on the eyes and fits like an extension to the hand. After a little stropping it makes a hot knife through butter look like childs play. Feels solid and shaves great! From sideburns to goatee it cuts flawlessly!

Solomon razor

19 days in today and so far feels nice but I am 19 days into learning but very happy with it. I think one day I’d like to get a more expensive one
It did arrive sharp and that was something I had wondered if it would arrive sharp reading up About it
4 out of 5 just cause it’s a bit heavy and and large

The Merlin Straight Razor is a beautifully handcrafted gem and by far one of our nicest razors. Much like the original Merlin, this razor is destined for adventure and is a great razor to take on the road.

The Merlin packs a sorcerer's punch with the following details:

  • Well balanced and engineered scales
  • Unique blade design for great grip
  • Powdered steel handle that never rusts
  • Stainless steel blade that lasts decades

Light and strong, this straight razor is a must-have.

Japanese Stainless Steel Blade

Made of super high-quality ACRO polished stainless steel and shaped just right.

It's a Japanese knife stainless steel with an HRC of 61-62. It's so hard that if someone breaks into your house, you could grab the Merlin to defend yourself like a magical wand.

Why Japan? Because they make the best steel in the world.

Have you ever heard of an American Samurai warrior? Well, if they existed, they would use Naked Armor's steel. As far back as the seventh century, Japanese warriors wore a form of lamellar armor, which later evolved into the samurai's armor.

Honor for a Samurai is placed above everything else, and with this same attitude, we created Naked Armor's shaving straight edge razors. 

Naked Armor Straight Razors

The Perfectly Balanced Straight Razor

Shaving with a straight razor is all about quality, sharpness, and balance. This razor is a tad lighter than our Solomon but feels great sliding down your cheekbone.
