A post on here a couple of days ago put me onto Merkur razors, anyone tried them and if so what like? Is it the emperors' new clothes again?
Cheersey cheese cheers!

i bought a merkur hd and a stack of derby razors (from http://www.timothyedwards.co.uk/) after a thread here last year. took a bit of practice (i.e. bloodletting), but got a nice close shave going now. main attraction for me was cheapness – reckon i'll save £60 over gillette mach3s over the first year.

now using soap, a nice brush and an alum block too.

Sorry folks, just found the old post 3 days ago, thanks,
