While searching for a place to purchase gillette fusion razor cartridges for less money I stumbled upon several forums devoted to double edge safety razors. Because I was spending nearly $15 for every pack of 4 replacement cartridges the thought of 100 double edge razor blades for the same price became very appealing. What's more most of these forums have indepth reviews of razors, and lengthy discussion about the advantages of shaving with a double edge safety razor. So after a great deal of research I decided to take the plunge and try using a safety razor. I chose the Merkur Futur for its adjustability and the many good reviews.A few things to note about this razor and my experience as someone new to safety razors. First I have enjoyed the challenge of using a safety razor. The Futur feels very natural in the hand and has a good heft to it. But it does require a great deal of caution to avoid razor burn and cuts. I realize this has more to do with ones own ability and the type of blade used, however it is still influenced to some degree by the angle your razor holds the blade at and the weight of the razor. That said if you have read this far you are likely considering the switch to a safety razor and I think it important to evaluate how much time you can devote to shaving each day. For me to get a close shave and to avoid razor burn or cuts, multiple passes in a slow and cautious manner are necessary. While I like taking the time if it is available (I find it somewhat therapeutic) I am a law student and often stay up late doing homework and wake up early with little time to shave. Under these circumstances it is often difficult for me to find the time everyday to devote to a 15 or 20 minute shave. If you aren't on a time crunch and would like to save money this is a good option.
If you are looking for a specific razor I can say that I believe this razor to be exceptionally well made and one that will likely last forever. But in all honesty as I have only used this safety razor and have no other safety razor to compare it to, my review is subjective and limited as a result. However after using this razor for the last 8 months and with all of the previously mentioned considerations I can still say that I would purchase it again. My plan at this point is to purchase a panasonic ES 8103 electric razor, to use on the days I just don't have time for this and to continue using this razor to get a close shave and enjoy shaving on the days that I have the extra time necessary.
