    Is the Merkur 34c a 2pc razor? I`ve been looking for a good used 2pc razor, any ideas?

    Royal's are very nice Israeli blades. I bought 4 / 10 blade packs a few years ago from a seller in Israel for $4 shipped! I think Crystals, Q-Ball, Viking Sword and others are all the same blade branded differently. ...................

    Str8 Shaver Well-Known Member

    Wash - Meissner Tremonia Puristic
    Prep - Noxzema / Hot towel
    Pre shave - Prep
    Razor – Barbaros TR-1
    Blade – Lord Platinum
    Brush - 'Jade' (Rooney Heritage 2XL Jade)
    Soap – OSP Eucalyptus + Menthol
    Post - Witch Hazel

    what a difference a blade makes... and soap!...the Lord/OSP combo provided a very comfortable, BBS shave with the Barbaros. I think the Nanny’s Traditional Moroccan Sands is going to have to be used with the Hone, which provides a milder, more forgiving shave..

    Great shave today. No blood. I changed the knot in the handle with a 23x65 mm silvertip. It's a lot smaller but a great knot. Gem g bar was great. Stainless steel blade is still going strong. I have a lot 6-7 shaves on it.

    Not as cushioning or slick as I would like. The scent was faint. I really prefer room-filling scents. It lathered easily, but it isn't the soap for me.

    Aftershave: aqua velva ice blue
    Bowl: Edwin Jagger brushed nickel
    Lathering bowl: Japanese flower design bowl
