Disposable razors cost $100 yearly and irritate skin. This German razor costs pennies per shave forever.
Why Not Just Buy the Cheap One?
Merkur's precision-engineered head and grip design delivers a consistent shave angle that irritation-causing disposable razors can't match; disposables are dull by shave three, force you to press harder (which causes ingrown hairs), and each blade costs $2+ per use. Merkur replaceable blades cost $0.15 each and stay sharper.
The Buy-Once Math
Disposable razors cost $20-30 monthly ($250+ yearly) and leave your face red from dull blades and aggressive pressing. Merkur costs $35 once, blades cost $5-10 per year forever, and your skin actually improves because you're shaving cleanly. You'll save thousands over a lifetime while getting better shaves and zero irritation.
