This particular 34C that I have has relatively good chrome plating. I used to have another 34C which I ended up giving away because the plating was similar to yours, and the knurling was super shallow. That one also had a crack in the handle… and it was brand new!

I have this razor and I love it, but the chrome on the center plate has delaminated, leaving bare steel. Also the center post tends to cruft up a bit, making it hard to remove the used blade without slicing up your fingertips. I hope someday to find one that’s solid stainless steel.

You’re in luck! The Razorock GOAT walden is posting about is a stainless steel clone of the Merkur 34C. :)

Oh cool, I’m glad I posted! Yeah it’s probably the 34C that I have.
