I just finished watching a show on the History Channel about the top 101 gadgets that changed the world. They listed the Safety Razor as No. 74. Yes, the safety razor changed the way men and women shave, but you would think from listening to the broadcast that no one uses a straight razor, today. My Merkur 34c gets a regular work out. It is my go to mode of shaving, but I work daily on my straight razor shaving skills and razor maintenance skills.

What are your reactions?
