Merkur Experts?

[luvmysuper]

Can any of the Merkur crowd tell me which models of the Merkur brand have the Slant type head? Dependant on the web site you view, sometimes one is listed as a Slant and sometimes not.

Is Merkur the only brand making a "Slant" type head?

Thanks in advance for any help.

As for your second question, I think Merkur are the only one making a Slant today, I might be mistaken about this. Gillette used to make some and Hoffritz also (Hoffritz is now known as Merkur).

Hoffritz is just a rebranded Merkur.
There used to be many companies that made slant razor but only Merkur remain.
See the German site under razor (planes) there's a 100+ page thread .
