 Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of amitdan.com. Today I'll have another episode of wet shaving video and I'll be opening and trying the Markur 34C Razor which I have it right here. If this is your first time or a big visit, thank you for your support on this hybrid channel. I'm all trying different ideas to take you beyond boundaries. If you're into thinking outside the box, this is a channel for you. If you're looking for more razor videos, there will be links in the description box below. So Markur 34C has to be one of the most popular razors in the world and also this is kind of the gold standard of razors. So the first thing I'm going to do, we're going to open this up, take a look at it and then I'm going to shave with this and then I'll provide you my opinion. So we'll start with the opening the razor and see how it looks like. So it came like this and the packaging is very simple but still it looks very attractive and you can see that this is made in Germany and you have some information right here. So it looks like they have their dress right here and then that's all we have here and you can see here tradition and design. So this is a very traditional popular razor. So I think they haven't changed the designing for many, many years and this is what they started years ago and still they have the same designing. So this is a two piece razor. So let's start opening this up and see how it looks like. Okay so I can see here they touch a blade so and this one actually looks like marker on blade so I'm just going to leave this here and then we have the razor right here. So I'm going to gently take it out and then we have the box empty so I'll just put it back in here and we just leave the box in here. So this is the razor. So the first thing I'm noticing right away is the quality. So you can tell that you know this is a quality product and well balanced product and if you can see that you know it's very balanced in my fingers and even it feels very good to hold and the length of the razor is very you know nice to hold it's not too short not too long so I kind of like it that way. So I'm going to try to open this up and see how it works so if I twist this then looks like you know the top part is coming off and let's just you know continue doing that. So you can see that this is the top part or the top head and then here you have the full razor so you're going to be just you know placing a blade here actually here and then put it back and then twist the knob to tighten the blade and I'm just going to close it here again and see how it looks. So even before putting the blade I can see that you know the exposure of the blade is very little so that means that you're going to very get a very safe and sensitive shape it's not going to you know give it too much or too many cuts and nicks and that's what I actually was expecting I don't like if the blade has too much exposure because I like you know which it gives a very like you know close and smooth and safe shape and this is a closed chrome razor and it has nice chrome finishing and the knurling feels very good in hand so definitely like you know you can tell right away that there's a quality and they have even some sort of like you know branding or their name right here although I'm not sure if camera can see it but it's there so the next part is going to be shaving so the next part is going to be actual shaving with this razor and then you know I'll see how it feels and how it holds and then I'll give you my opinion. Hello everyone so I'm going to start shaving with the Markure 34C razor so which I have it right here and then this is the first time I'm going to be shaving with this razor so what happens they gave Markure blade but I'm not going to be using that I'll just use my Gillette Olkinson sword because I got used to it for shaving for for the past few weeks so I'll just in a stick to something I already know and then I'm going to be using Porosso shaving cream with my Omega S3 brush so let's start doing the shaving cream so let's start lathering up so lather can be very thick and I have about two days beard growth I don't mind adding some little more water here so when you're shaving with a double-edged razor blade you have to take your time I feel like this is kind of meditation you know it's just giving it's very relaxing and taking me away from everything else I'm just concentrating on the joy of shaving okay at this point this looks like okay and I'm going to just clean up a little bit here and here on the sideburns and that should be good enough so this is a two-piece razor so you have to just you know twist it a little bit and the top portion or head ahead is going to come off this way and then I'm going to install blade in here and then I'll put it back this way and if you just twist back then this is going to secure the blade now by the opening of it you can you can tell that this is going to be a mild shape because the blade exposure is just perfectly you know a mild and for sensitive skin but we're going to see how it works and there's very little tab exposure on both sides I still there is but it's not a lot although this is a non-issue for me but some razors covers you know covers the tab all the way but this has slightly tab exposure on both sides okay so looks like we are ready to shave and this is Markur 34C made in Germany which considered to be the gold standard of razor and I'm shaving it for the first time my first Markur product so let's see how it goes I can I can feel the you know smoothness right away so definitely very sensitive razor and mild razor very good for first time users but let's complete and then you know I'll give you my opinion so far I'm surprised the way it is gliding over my stubble so I'm just going to clean up and it was not hard to clean up so in the future I'm expecting to do comparison review between Markur, Mohal and Edwin Jagger so all coming up on this channel in the near future so what happened looks like the soap dried a little bit and this is just for this part that should be good enough and I don't use animal brush so this is a synthetic brush omega s series so we'll start this part about the lips so the blade Wilkinson sword Gillette this is not really a mild blade this is you know some more medium aggressive to lower mild and even it's doing very good with Markur 34C so I'm just wondering if I use a like in a milder blade probably it's going to give you much smaller shape which is going to be on the video in the future okay so this should be good enough so this is a short handle razor but you know you don't feel really when you're shaving very well balanced and it has some weight to it but still you know it doesn't feel bad at all and looks like I almost got to a very small shape except I have a little bit like you know cut here and here were very negligible so I'm really happy with the product I'm not I cannot even imagine what difference you know a sensitive and good razor can make even if you have don't have the most sensitive blade or milder blades so this is definitely one of my best razors and I have a know muhal viking junior chieftain and then there are other razors but looks like this is one of the top are among you know other top three razors and I'm very happy with the product cannot really complain about this but definitely I'm going to be doing more videos in the future with this razor combining other blades and other you know shaving products so this is not a paid or affiliated review I purchased this with my own money and I'm really happy with the marker 34 C and this is one of the top razors and it tells you know you can feel right away when you start when you start shaving very you know mild and this is definitely it's going to work for people who are just started to shave or if you are just starting with double-edged safety razor so this is going to be one of my top recommendations so that was the review of the marker but I do have more shaving videos and I'm going to be I'll put a link on the screen and I'll see you in the next video thank you for watching
