The 41C has a traditional hexagonal handle with diamond patterns, with Merkur's standard open comb head.

It is a compact 3-piece design with moderate weight. Because it is not very heavy, the open comb head is not very aggressive.

In fact, it is one of the gentlest open comb safety razors, so we believe it is perfect for young people to start with open comb razors.

Initially, you should wash your face with warm water. This opens the pores and makes shaving easier. Start by generously covering your skin with shaving foam.

Give the foam 5 minutes to soften the beard hair. Then, set your safety razor at a 30 - 45° angle and guide it on your face without pressure.

To free the razor head from the cut hair, simply hold it under the tap every few strokes.

Caring for a safety razor is very easy. After use, simply rinse the razor well and remove any foam residue and cut hair.

A nail brush and a hair shampoo or dish soap help with stubborn dirt. Finally, dry it with a towel and it is ready for the next shave.

When changing razor blades, check all parts for a tight fit.
