Double Edge Safety Razors - Premium DE Razors Collection

What is a safety razor?

A safety razor is a classic shaving tool using one double-edge blade. The head protects skin while the blade cuts close. Mühle R89 and Merkur 34C are classic choices for beginners.

Open comb or closed comb?

Closed comb is milder and ideal for beginners. Open comb is more aggressive, better for thick beards. Start with closed comb like Mühle R89. Mühle R41 open comb is for experienced shavers.

Which razor for beginners?

Henson AL13 is designed for beginners — very mild, almost impossible to cut yourself. Merkur 34C and Mühle R89 are classic choices with balanced aggression. Avoid open comb at first.

How long does a blade last?

Usually 3-7 shaves depending on beard density and blade. Change when it starts to tug. Blades cost €0.10-0.50 each — huge long-term savings.

Adjustable or fixed?

Adjustable razors like Rockwell 6S allow changing aggressiveness — ideal for finding your preferred setting. Fixed are simpler and usually cheaper. For beginners, a good fixed razor is enough.

Do I need special blades?

All safety razors accept standard double-edge blades. Try different brands (Feather, Astra, Gillette) to find what suits your skin. Sample packs are ideal to start.
