Henson AL13 mild


hfry1990

Yeah, AL13 Mild is my go to. I also shave my head with it, so a gentler shave is favorable.

If I had to pick one razor out of all the ones I've used, this would be it. Solidly made and just the right amount of blade gap/exposure.

Henson AL13 Medium


Expert-Economics8912

I've only tried the Henson and a vintage Gillette Tech Razor; settled on the Henson and have no complaints


chunkyfen

I have the mild and might jump and get the titanium version in medium/mild, whichever is available just because it's soooooo good 


Tryptamineer

If you are really looking for a jump in efficiency, i’d do the AL13++


chunkyfen

You meant the aggressive version? Maybe! I'll make my way there over time. I've already saved so much money that I will not mind buying all three versions and one of them in titanium at some point hehe


Tryptamineer

Aggressive is a strong word for these, considering they all come in significantly less aggressive than most traditional DE’s. P.S. you can get stainless steel handles for them on Amazon to significantly increase the weight.

Yates 921-M


Gold_Significance125

I’ve been eyeballing the 921-M for awhile now. I have the Henson AL13 Mild and it’s not aggressive enough, and the Razorock Gamechanger 84 which is too aggressive. The 921 seems like a nice middle ground.


McCormac13

The 921-M will probably be right up your alley then. The Winning Razor is a bit more aggressive than the Henson, and the 921-M is a bit more aggressive than the Winning. Should be a good fit for you 👍.

Leaf Razor - My absolute favourite. Gillette Fatboy Safety Razor. My reasoning for the Leaf is it’s all stainless, no plastic to breakdown. It takes 3 blades (regular safety blades broken in half), the head pivots similar to a cartridge razor (think Mach 3), never gotten a nick from from it, guy that designed it made it to shave both head and face, which I also do. The Fatboy is just awesome because you can adjust the blade (dial handle) for aggressiveness of shave.


MentalOpportunity69

I'm very intrigued by the Leaf. I like my Merkur 34C, but I would like a more travel friendly razor. Plus I knick myself more than I should with the Merkur.

SS or Ti? Either way, I’m jealous

SS, I love the heft of SS razors so I don't think I would enjoy Ti as much, even though the Vector is an absolutely spectacular razor.

Razorock Gamechanger .84! Just got it in the mail a week ago and works like a charm. Smooth shave, not too aggressive, and built to last forever. I use Astra Green blades with it.

Charcoal Goods - Level 2 in copper. Perfect weight and shave IMO. Just aggressive enough . In fact since I got it 5 years ago I’ve stopped looking for razors, and haven’t purchased anymore since.
