Hi Bossmen
I'm interested in getting a slant, but dont know whether to go for a Merkur or look around for a vintage one. My budget is about 100 bucks so I'm not in the Hoffritz market (sadly). I'd really appreciate your views on what to look for and the pros and cons of each.

I have 5 slants, but still prefer the 39c and 37c.I'd suggest getting the merkur 37c or 39c, depending on the length of handle you like. It's a razor of decent quality, especially for the price, and is very similar to many vintage slants you will find in your price range. If you like the Merkur, you will probably like other slants. If you don't like it, then you didn't waste a bunch of searching and money for the experience.
