The adjustable 395? Fact of Fiction  Rocnel 2026 MC Aluminum Father\u2019s Day is Coming! How to give the perfect gift  Emails from Listeners  ___________________________________________________________________________ Merkur 34 Adjustable   The Merkur 34 Adjustable (34 ADJ) safety razor was officially released on May 8, 2026. Priced at 79 euros.  Key Details About the Release Design Hybrid: The razor merges the iconic, heavy-duty short handle of the classic non-adjustable Merkur 34C (a staple since the 1950s) with an adjustable blade gap mechanism heavily inspired by the Merkur Progress head design. Adjustment Range: By turning the knob at the base of the handle, wet shavers can scale the blade gap from 0.6 mm to 1.6 mm, allowing customization from a mild daily shave to a coarser hair setting. Launch Platform: It was introduced directly on the Official MERKUR Stahlwaren. ___________________________________________________________________________ Gillette New Razor: Fact of Fiction? Well if you happen to ask AI if Gillette is coming out with a new adjustable razor you\u2019ll get an answer.     \u2018And it\u2019s 100% not true.  That's right, it's fiction! A few people posted an April Fool\u2019s joke last month and it tricked AI into thinking it was true.    So to answer the question:  No unfortunately Gillette is not coming out with a new adjustable razor.  ____________________________________________________________________________ Rocnel Aluminum MC 2026 Release Rocnel has recently released their master collection Series 2 razor which is usually the most sought after but have announced they are taking pre-orders for an MC Aluminium Adjustable razor.  This razor is priced at 395 euros, which is much less than the MC stainless which is priced at 1150.   ____________________________________________________________________________ Father\u2019s Day is Coming  Father\u2019s Day is around the corner and you know what that means, time to get those gifts!  Do you need help with the perfect gift?  I\u2019ll help you!   Follow these simple steps: Ask questions:  What do they like scent wise? Is there anything on their wish list? ETC. Look at what they\u2019re already using. What type of razor? Brush? Soap?  Avoid stores that do not specialize in wet shaving: Such as Marshalls, TJ Maxx ect.  I\u2019ll go more into detail, but stick to these three simple steps and you will be ok! __________________________________________________________________________ Emails From Listeners I received a few emails this past week and wanted to share.  I plan on featuring any email received from a listener on a future show so feel free to email me!  ___________________________________________________________________________ Our show is powered by Sharpologist.com, \u201cWhat Your Father Didn\u2019t Teach You about Shaving\u201d  Special Thanks to:   Mark aka Mantic 59 Most of All\u2026\u2026\u2026.YOU!!!!   Don\u2019t forget to check out my blog site www.shavestraightandsafe.com  for the tips and interesting wet shaving stories!   Please feel free to contact me at joe.wetshavingnews@gmail.com     Subscribe to my You Tube Chanel for videos regarding some interesting wet shaving content.   Don\u2019t forget to check out my book \u201cThe Modern Guide to Straight Razor Shaving\u201d available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and at Pasteur's Pharmacy in NYC.    If you\u2019re a vendor and would like to be featured on the show please contact me!!
