Hi everyone.
I've been shaving with a Merkur 34C for about 4 weeks. This is my first ever DE razor, after using cartridge razors for roughly 20 years.
It's a very nice, forgiving razor, but it takes me 3 passes to get a nice clean shave. I am looking for something a little more aggressive - not too much. I don't have a thick beard, but my stubble is quite hard and wiry.
I have read about the 15C, which is of course open comb. Most of the discussion centers around the fact that it is a very mild razor.
What I am wanting to ask is whether I will notice a difference between the two, or are they both much of a muchness, given that the 15C is described as mild ? If it feels and shaves like the 34C, it may not be worth changing.
Thanks in advance.
