I've been using the Merkur 37C for a while now and I've always been curious about the significance of Solingen in the history of Merkur. From what I understand, Solingen is a city in Germany that has been associated with the production of high-quality razors and cutlery for centuries. I've heard that Merkur was founded in Solingen back in 1896 by Emil Hermes, and that the company has been committed to producing top-notch razors ever since. I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on how Solingen's reputation for excellence has influenced Merkur's approach to design and manufacturing. For example, do consumers expect a certain level of quality from Merkur razors because of their Solingen heritage? Are there specific regulations or standards that Merkur has to meet in order to be considered "Solingen-approved"? How does the city's history of razor production impact the design of razors like the 37C, which is known for its high-quality materials and construction? I'd love to hear from anyone with insight into Merkur's connection to Solingen and how it affects their products.

That's a great point about Solingen's reputation being a badge of honor - do you think Merkur's commitment to quality is partly driven by a desire to uphold that legacy, or is it more about meeting customer expectations?

How does Solingen's legacy of excellence influence Merkur's design process, do you think they have a special team dedicated to ensuring every razor meets those high standards?
