Thanks Bob appreciate it
Been debating about getting a Merkur slant just to see what all the fuss was about. I guess at some point it is almost inevitable that I will.

I'm with you on this one....I purchased the Merkur Sledgehammer DE, heard it was the closest to a straight, and frankly, I didn't really notice much, if any difference between it and my Gillette Aristocrat. If anything, I found upping the setting on my FatBoy I could get a more aggressive shave. Either way, I get varying degrees of neck irritation with a DE that I never get with a straight.
I love the Merkur slant. It is one of my go to DE's. Its all about what works for you. Buy them both an try them. What you don't want push off on one of us poor addicts.:rofl2:
Just a quick update.... I don't know why or how it happened but I ended up just buying EJ DE89L and a set of sample pack blades... I believe its a nice razor...
Thanks Bob...
there is plenty of room in the cabinet for more new editions later on in the year #next month
I have an R41 coming to me in a Pass sometime soon. I am mystifyed about the love/hate associated with this razor and will report first impressions.
