Merkur Solingen

The ivory-colored adjustment knob on the Merkur Progress razor is not just an aesthetic detail, but also a central feature for adjusting the intensity of the shave. For newcomers to safety razors, the milder settings are ideal, while those more accustomed to the process can increase aggressiveness by adjusting to the higher levels.

The advantage of this adjustability lies in its flexibility to adapt to different types of beard growth. If you have thick or dense facial hair, a more intense setting may be advantageous, whereas a milder setting may be better suited for those with thinner beard growth. Regardless of your personal preference, there is a setting that will suit you.

In addition to this adjustability in shaving intensity, the razor has also been designed with an extra-long handle. While this may be a matter of personal taste, the longer handle facilitates shaving hard-to-reach areas, such as the neck or the area behind the jawline.
