The Merkur 500 Progress Double Edge (DE) Safety Razor is a beautifully crafted and finished 3 piece, fully adjustable razor. The quality which is synonymous with Merkur is evident in every detail.

The handle is topped with a plated brass head which is finished in Polished Chrome. Fully adjustable, the Progress 500 is among a handful of adjustable razors whose actions can be tailored to the user. An elegant looking razor and a popular favourite.
