Where is the Merkur 38C made?

Post by LukeLifts »

I've been doing some research on the Merkur 38C, a fantastic double-edge safety razor that's been getting a lot of attention lately, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me where it's actually made? From what I've gathered, Merkur is a German-based company with a rich history dating back to 1906, and I know they're known for producing some of the best shaving implements in the industry. I've read that the Merkur 38C is crafted with a solid brass core and finished off with chrome plating, which gives it that sleek, high-quality look and feel. The zinc die-casting process used to manufacture the head of the plane is also pretty impressive. I've heard that Solingen, a city in Germany, is famous for its metalworking and blade production, so I'm guessing that's where the Merkur 38C might be made. Can anyone confirm this? Are there any other brands that use similar methods or materials in their production processes? I've also been curious about the history of Merkur and how they've managed to stay competitive in the industry, especially with the late surge in popularity of traditional wet shaving. Oh, and on a related note, I've heard that taxes and trade regulations can affect the production and distribution of certain brands - has anyone looked into how this might impact the Merkur 38C?
