Best $100 DE Razor

[fathandle]

Good luck with the EJ 3one6. For a cheap and aggressive razor the Fatip is a good one, all brass.

Karve Christopher Bradley in brass. With three different plates you will be set back Cdn 164 which works out to US$125.10.

For current production and $100 Karve would fit the bill nicely. RazorRock has some nice offerings, I've owned a GC and the Mamba and like the Karve better. The Gillettes are good suggestions, but not current production which the OP asked for.

Take away all my razors, give me $100 for one newly built razor.

Karve brass Christopher Bradley
3" handle
original cap
OC-D plate
and the OC-C plate if the exchange rate allows it

I'll shave happy. (And start acquiring vintage razors as soon as no one is looking.)

FOCS- Fatip Lo Storto

That Lo Storto looks super aggressive. How's it feel post-shave?

Razorock Game changer .84 with a Kai SS blade, excellent razor with this combo. Regular blades I need more clean up passes. RR GC .84 gives very little blade exposure with a regular blade. Well made razor IMO.

I concur!

I recently got a Karve fatbody with a B plate and I love it so much I sold my 6S. Seriously has changed how I look at other razors.

Another vote for the Karve...I have a brass plate B with a custom handle. I bought the head and base plate only for about $53 US and was very impressed. With a Kai SS blade in it...it's amazing. This producer has something going on here. It's worth a look.

My mind is actually blown at how good the karve razor is. I used to think the 6s was the best razor I’ve used. But it never gave me a bbs shave in two passes that last through most of the next day. I used the B plate with a sharks chrome blade and got no irritation or cuts. Wanted to use the c 0late the next day to compare but shave was so good I didn’t have enough growth.

I think the 6S is a solid razor, and great for figuring out what kind of aggression and blade gaps you like.

I just got a new Karve SB C yesterday, and my first shave, using a 7 o’clock yellow, was among the best I’ve experienced in 40 years of wet shaving. Highly recommended, and the wait time was only about 2 1/2 weeks.

Either a brass Karve or the RR Gamechanger 0.84. The Rockwell 6S just below those.

SB or OC?

 

[Aidah]

SB or OC?

SB, OC is too aggressive for my face for DE shaving. I only want the feel of a blade if I'm shaving with my straight.

 

[thombrogan]

Thank you. I like the look of most OC plates better than SB ones, but staring and shaving are different beasts sometimes.

Rockwell 6s and RazoRock GC 84

My sentiment exactly!!!

You people are terrible enablers. That is all.

Oh definitely, B&B is the best/worst thing to ever happen to me.
