The Merkur 1904 Double Edge Razor is modelled on the original 1904 Gillette DE razor. While it shares the same head design as the Classic, the Merkur 1904 has a beefier six-sided handle that some find easier to get their mitts around. The handle also features a handsome, hand-tooled diamond pattern which gives the razor an antique appeal. Stylish chrome plated finish. Made in Solingen, Germany and covered by a 2 Year Australian Warranty.
