Well, somebody had their espresso this morning! :)

I agree about your assessment on this type of marketing. Compared to razors offered in plastic with many tiny blades of the cheapest possible stainless, chrome-covered zamac is still a large improvement in quality. :)

It never disappoints. 🍻

I agree! I still recommend the Merkur 34C for beginners for instance. It’s just praising it as peak durability that irks me and it leaves no room for making the case for steel.

  Yes, this sort of thing irks me too. It’s misleading, and doesn’t need to be.
