Apart from the Bakelite model, the new Merkur catalogue shows three other new models, including what looks to be a black handled version of the 38C and another in stainless steel. Does anyone know who is carrying stock of the full range?

Thank you!!
Other than the bakelite, I'm not really impressed.

Whoops! "Slip of the Pen" (= keyboard!).
I'm not that impressed either; but I have a feeling the one with the tapered black resin handle and flat grip might handle very nicely.
Where can that catalog can be seen?
But where is the Gold Barber Pole Slant Bar?

It's too bad companies can come out and blatanly copy a company a name by one letter and get away with it. What's next, Zerkur?

Just look for the three razors that say, "New for 2010"
I'm thinking a gold, slant, open comb, Progress. That would be the ultimate "my d*ck's bigger than yours" razor.
I'd buy one just for the uniqueness of it.
Or how about open comb and safety bar, slant Bakelite versions of the Progress?. I could go for one of those, too.
Just a thought.

The Model 44011, 3-piece with black handle looks interesting ... it might be worth it to buy just for the head, if it will fit my Bull Mastiff handle.
I don't consider the black resin-handle 38 to be a new model. Putting out an existing razor in a new color doesn't seem to be anything "new," just different.
The fat-handle 40141 has been intriguing me for a while ... I like the fact that it weighs in at a hefty 105 grams. I just can't see why they made it in such ugly colors. Has anyone actually shaved with one of these?

Not to hijack the thread but in another thread I saw some of the English posters talking about buying shaving stuff at a store named TKMAXX.
Probably just the UK subsidiary of TJMAXX.
Gave me a chuckle
