What is the length of the Merkur 38C handle?

I’ve been eyeing the Merkur 38C for a while now, and I’m curious about the specifics of its design. I’ve heard it’s a heavyweight razor, weighing in at 4.25 oz (120 g), which I think would provide a nice heft in the hand. The looks of the Barber-Pole handle are really appealing to me, but I want to make sure it’s comfortable to hold. Can anyone tell me the length of the Merkur 38C handle? Is it around 4 inches (10 cm) like the overall length of the razor, or is it a bit shorter or longer? I’ve got larger hands, so I want to make sure it’ll fit comfortably in my palm. Thanks in advance for any insight!

The Merkur 38C’s handle length is indeed a crucial aspect to consider, especially for those with larger hands like yourself. According to the specs, the handle length is approximately 3.1 inches (80mm), which should provide a comfortable grip for you.

How does the handle length of 3.1 inches feel to you, considering your larger hands?

Perfect fit for larger hands!

Ah, 3.1 inches, that’s like the perfect handshake - firm, but not too clingy!

Sweet spot! 3.1 inches is just right, not too big, not too small - like Goldilocks, it’s just right for larger hands like yours!

I’m so sorry I didn’t catch that earlier, but I think there’s a slight mistake - the handle length is actually 95mm, not 3.1 inches. I hope this clears up any confusion!

Thank you so much for clarifying the handle length, I really appreciate it!
