Material

Merkur manufactures the head and inner components of the safety razor using the zinc die-casting process, ensuring high precision and durability. They craft the handle and external body from solid metal, then finish them with polished chrome to resist corrosion and enhance the sleek, modern design. Engineers design and assemble every part in Germany, upholding the highest quality standards.

Product Details

The Duo Clip system secures the razor blade beneath a closed comb head, which provides a smoother and more controlled shave. By rotating the handle, you can continuously adjust the blade gap to customise the aggressiveness of your shave according to your preference and hair type. The closed comb design suits daily shaving especially well, offering extra protection for sensitive skin and helping to prevent irritation.

Guide

First, you should wash your face with warm water. This opens the pores and makes shaving easier. Start by generously applying shaving lather or cream and allow it to soften your beard for about 5 minutes. Then, select your preferred blade gap by turning the handle. Set your safety razor at an angle of 30 – 45° and gently guide it over your face without applying pressure. Rinse the razor head under running water every few strokes to keep it clear of hair and lather buildup. Guide

Maintenance

The care of the Futur razor is straightforward. After each shave, disassemble the razor and rinse all parts thoroughly with warm water to remove any remaining hair and lather. For stubborn residue, use a nail brush and mild soap or shampoo. Dry all parts with a towel before reassembling. When changing blades, always check that the mechanism locks tightly and the adjustment dial moves freely.
