    If I had that much hair I might grow dreads too..... But it just comes out as more like old guy long mess or something. I can still grow the beard though.

    I also like the 34c razor a lot. I would say it is one of my top 5 razor picks. In my humble opinion the Merkur 34c razor is one of the best razors going for the price, it also gives great shaves. Also if taken care of the 34c will last a lifetime.

    The 34c is a great razor for both the beginner and the advanced whet shaver. I will always keep my 34c around.

    Happy Shaves,

    My Rockwell 6 is the one I reach for the most but also have a ATT I like a lot. Thinking of picking up a Charcoal Goods razor. I like the way they look. New Vintage.

    double like, that is what I would go out the door with. And I think I paid $5 for it a few years ago.

    56 Red Tip. No doubt about it. For me it's the perfect balance and never fails.

    Just like the Flares in the wild haven't found them for MORE than $5. What a deal, what a deal!

    I'd keep my Slim. It plays well with most blades and it's adjustable, which makes it 9 razors instead of 1!!

    Although my 6S is my daily driver, if I had to only keep one it would be my birth year and quarter Slim Adjustable.
    I only have 4 razors total.
    6S V2 (Daily Driver)
    6S 1, 1.5 combination of both modified (Travel razor)
    66 Slim adjustable
    67 Slim Adjustable (my dad's razor when deployed overseas).

    I'll throw another vote in for the Merkur 34C.

    Was the first DE in my den and an excellent razor to learn on. Now that the skills have progressed a bit, I can whip out a BBS with most any blade and soap combo I have on hand.

    Excellent balance. Not too aggressive. All day, every day consistency. Great quality and workmanship. Easy on the wallet.

    What's not to love about this razor?!

    My Gem Bullitt Tip. It's a straight razor on a stick.
