Very good razor that delivers excellent results. Close shave where the razor does the job!
Merkur 39C Slant Bar is a slightly longer version of Merkur Slant Bar, a safety razor which through its unique slanting construction, it will give you an unbeatable close and friction-free shave. It is not a tool for beginners, but it is the perfect purchase as a second razor, or for someone wanting to take the final step in search the perfect shave.
This razor works best with really sharp blades. We would recommened Feather, the sharpest of them all.

Performs at the top level.
Slightly heavy razor that is well-balanced. Just let it glide over your beard and it cuts the beard off like a hot knife through butter. It doesn't cut it off, it slices it off, making shaving very comfortable. Recommended!
Large handle which is good. Much heavier than Merkur's other razors, feels better.
Went from a Sailor 71r to this. From having cuts every shave to none at all. This shaves my coarse beard with ease without irritating the skin. Shaves more easily around sharp angles like the chin. It all leads to faster shaving. Easy to clean as well. Best I've tried, will never have a reason to switch.
Absolutely wonderful razor
I've had the Merkur 37C before and have been satisfied. However, it feels a bit small and light. Therefore, I purchased this Merkur 39C. What a difference. This is the one I've been looking for all these years. The 37C will become my travel razor, because now I'm switching to the slant 100%.
I've had safety razors for many years now. But this is the first one with a slightly larger handle. And I like it. It feels like you get a bit more control. However, it doesn't fit in my holder. So now it has to lie next to it in the cabinet. Which bothers me more than it should. Gents replies: Hi Johnny, thanks for sharing! Great to hear that you've found a new razor you like, it is a jungle to search through ;) Here you'll find a razor stand from Benjamin Barber where your Markur razor fits. Greetings, Elin from Gents
Heavy and solid, almost "self-leveling" with its weight!
Very effective and usually you don’t need to shave any area more than twice when I shave (about twice a week). The razor suits me well as I’ve had difficulty getting certain areas under the jaw completely smooth without dragging the razor many times, resulting in irritated skin.
