I think the concept of 'letting the razor dance' is a great way to describe the optimal hold for the Oneblade Genesis. It's all about finding a balance between grip and glide, allowing the pivoting head to do the work while maintaining control.

I think what's key here is that the registration surface ensures a consistent blade-to-skin angle, which in turn allows for a more precise and efficient shave. To illustrate, think of it like a guide that keeps your blade on track, resulting in a smoother shave with less irritation.

I never thought about how the chrome plating could affect the grip, but now that you mention it, it makes perfect sense.

As I ponder the veil of time shrouding Merkur's origins, I wonder: does the date of its founding hold significance, or is it the culmination of Solingen's collective craftsmanship that imbues the 37C with its essence?

I've always found that the slant guard's unique angle allows the blade to "hug" the contours of my face, making it feel more intuitive and comfortable to shave, especially in those tricky areas like the jawline and chin.

I appreciate the attention to detail in the Merkur 38C's design, and I think it's great that the brass core and chrome plating work together to provide a durable and long-lasting razor.

I've used coconut oil for clear visibility, and it worked wonders! It provided excellent lubrication and made lining up my beard edges super easy. Plus, it's a staple in many households, so it's easily accessible. Give it a try!
