Futur Razor (Brushed Steel)

It's my first razor and very happy with it. Easy to use and very nice finished. Maybe a bit heavy in hand but comfortable.

Merkur

Excellent shave. Requires a bit getting used to especially if you have been using Gillette series blades (fusion). Merkur offers better close shave. Handle is a bit short and brushed steel gets hot/cold quite easily depending upon the water temperature. Nevertheless I don't think i'd be using anything else after this purchase. Definitely worth every penny.

Futur??? Outstanding Razor
14 December 2010
Today I received my razor. I was eager to try it on my 10 years beard. Yes you heard well: 10 years beard. After a good shower and a big lather I set it up to 3. On my whiskers went like a Ferrari (I forgot to mention that I also like to shave with a straight razor), but in my beard it stuck. I positioned to 5 and wow, it shaved like a charm. After 3 passes my face looked like BBS after a long lime. I would like to thank Niven & Joshua for their incredible job. Keep up the good work guys!; and I strongly recommend.

Best shave

This is by a country mile the best razor I have bought. Smooth is not the word.

Merkur Futur
01 December 2010
Reassuringly weighty and easy to use. Having used cartridge, battery or electric razors my entire shaving life I'll admit to having some trepidation as I contemplated my first shave with this. There was absolutely no need; At setting '1' it glided over my fizzog a treat, resulting in as good a shave as a brand new cartridge but feeling somehow better. Will save a fortune over time.

Merkur Futur Razor
05 November 2010
I brought this razor as a birthday gift for my Dad, who is thrilled with it! I've been told it's really easy to use and that it gives a much smoother shave than your standard cartridge razor blades. A perfect gift for birthdays or Christmas or as a treat to yourself!

My Merkur Futur.
27 October 2010
Just received my Merkur Futur. I couldn't wait to try it out and when I did was I impressed? I certainly was! I couldn't believe how smooth my already smooth skin felt. At first I was a little bit nervous (never used this type of razor before) but once I lathered up and started shaving, I couldn't believe how smoothly it went across my skin as the weight and balance are perfect and made everything go smoothly and gave me a first class finish. I'm very impressed!

Great razor!
02 October 2008
This razor was a great first step in escaping the world of cartridge shaving for me. It has paid for itself now I don't need to buy cartridges and canned foam every month.
Its nice and heavy too, and after a few months of use I've noticed a definite reduction in irritation and an increase in skin smoothness.
I'd recommend starting with it set at 2 and slowly increasing the blade angle each shave until you start to nick yourself, then take it back a notch. Make sure you use a decent cream and brush too.
Nothing else to say except buy this now!
