What's new

Your current TOP 5 DE's?

I will give this a shot.

Top 5 Modern:
Rex>6s>GameChanger>ATT R1> Karve B.

Top 5 Vintage:
Popular>46'-47' Aristo> RFB NEW> 1934 Aristo> Fatboy.

Too hard pressed to pick a top five mixing it up. Maybe Rex>6s>Popular>46-47>GameChanger. This could change with the wind though. Culling a top 10 was hard enough.

Frankenrazor Merkur20c/Cobbled
ATT Atlas S1
Barbaros TR-02

I don't have the first two in my rotation but they looks great and performs well, instead of my franken The Karve Christopher Bradley looks and perform well (but i don't have...)
 
Have 2 razors and a 3rd on the way (.84 RR Game Changer), so top 3 then will likely look something like this:

Rex Ambassador
RR Gamec Changer .84
Rockwell 6S

One more razor on my list, will reveal and see how it compares when that happens.
 
1. Gillette Old Type with hollow ball end handle.
2. Gillette NEW Long Comb with hollow ball end handle.
3. Merkur 34G.
4. Gillette Red Tip Super Speed.
5. Gillette Tech with solid ball end handle. Pre or Post War, makes no difference to me.
 
1. Muhle R89 - slightly lighter weight than the EJ DE 89
2. Merkur 34C
3. EJ DE 89
4. Gillette Aristocrat
5. Gillette Tuckaway
 

Ad Astra

The Instigator

2. English Gillette RFB No.77
3. English No.66/16

After a late year purge, I only have five!

In order of use:

PW/FH Tech (def fav - used 70% of the time)

'60 Fatboy (def 2nd fav)

UK 50's Tech
Fatip Grande
NEW Deluxe

I also have an old type head that I've been a bit scared to use considering how much blade I feel with the NEW.
 
I am fairly new to DE shaving, am currently very sick with RAD, but looking for a cure. So, in no particular order...

Feather AS-D2
Timeless SS 68 Scalloped w/80mm barbershop handle
E3 Fatboy
EJ de89 w/3D black diamond handle (1st razor)
RFB 44/Aristocrat 16 (Thanks to a B&B brother. I am still testing both and so far so good)
 
Only have four:

- Timeless Ti .68 SB Scalloped
- Feather ASD2
- ATT SS/Calypso Hybrid R1 on TiBam Titanium Handle
- PAA DOC Ascension on Braveheart Handle (Executive Shaving)
 
1. Lord L6 head with a Merkur 33c handle.
2. Rockwell 6c
3. Gillette NEW Deluxe
All my other razors are SE's although I am auditioning 3 new DE's now.

eric.
 
1. Gillette New LC with bar handle. Truth is I probably get my best shaves from this.

2. Merkur Progress, 510 long handle model. I love that chrome plating.

3. Merkur 34G. Ever buy a gold razor because your shave den needs some contrast?

4. 1960s Gillette ball end Tech, nickel plate. No comment necessary.

5. Schick Krona. This kind of ties with my Super Speeds, but I like that longer handle.
