Yep, that's the long-handle version. Same head though.

Really? Let me check my Amazon order. Mine I am positive is short handle. One sec....

My bad..you are right. I have the 37C. I stand..well sit corrected.

Never used their brand but did order from them. Merkur's been working well for me from day one, I never had a reason to leave them.

However there are the fanatics and collectors which you will find on Badger and Blade those, oh boy...you have to see it for yourself. I had to leave the forum for their view points just didn't jive with me.

I participated at B&B for a while, and it's a great place to learn and read reviews, but . . . I can't be as fanatical as some of those guys. Shaving is a necessity, and wetshaving has changed shaving from something I dreaded each day to something I can almost enjoy, but it will never be a focal point of my life. Some of those guys over there are so obsessed that they shave twice a day.

Merkur 39C

I looked it up. Does it use the same blades as a safety razor or do you have to buy special blades?
