I was shaving with a Bic sensitive and really enjoyed how much I enjoyed it. I was curious, what SE razor might be the best alternative for this with a DE blade? The ac blades I’m not a massive fan of.
I really like these as well, which I use when I traveled (pre-pandemic).I was shaving with a Bic sensitive and really enjoyed how much I enjoyed it.
I don't know of one that's going to feel similar with the half DE blades.I was curious, what SE razor might be the best alternative for this with a DE blade?
I'm not sure exactly the reason is here. Perhaps it is the extra width, extra thickness, that your skin doesn't seem to like these blades, you already have a lifetime supply of DE blades and prefer to use those, another reason, a combination of reasons, et cetera.The ac blades I’m not a massive fan of.
I said above I have a twig and it’s rather aggressive. Right above this post of yours as a matter of facts.Leaf twig I'd a good shave nice and close without without irritation.
My logic is just to not use a disposable razor and see if there is something heavy duty out there.You could try a Bic Metal for a more efficient shave and excellent longevity even though it is a disposable as the Sensitive.
I use the RR Eco regularly but it has a completely different angle than regular DE razors so I don’t think it’s a good solution for what you are looking for.
Then I would look for a (Schick) Injector which is the closest geometry to a disposable.My logic is just to not use a disposable razor and see if there is something heavy duty out there.
It seems to be out of stock at the moment. Link here.I can’t seem to locate the challenger razor anywhere .
Based on the additional information, I would be inclined to agree with this suggestion to consider what an injector has to offer.Then I would look for a (Schick) Injector which is the closest geometry to a disposable.
I’m not opposed ! Any you think I should absolutely start with?Then I would look for a (Schick) Injector which is the closest geometry to a disposable.

Is the vector ti the daily driver?For vintage Schick injectors, this identification guide can give you an idea of all of the vintage models out there. For vintage, my experience is limited to the type E and type G.
I find the type G really mild, maybe too mild, and I enjoy mild razors. The type E is a little less so, but does not have the reputation for being as smooth as the type G.
I have a modern Parker Adjustable Injector, which looks a bit like a 1960s vintage PAL adjustable razor, but I still need to try it out. (I have been stuck in a "Groundhog Day Loop" with the Vector Ti and still need to try out some newer purchases.)
Hopefully some of the injector fanatics around here will chime in with suggestions and information.
It has become the daily driver for me after getting it during Blackland's sale in June. I did not find it intuitive at all at first, but now that I have learned it, it just keeps getting better for me. The (1) light weight and (2) relatively small head gives me the two characteristics I like from the Bic Metal and Sensitive disposables. (For AC format, I find the RR Hawk V3 to be much more intuitive, especially for those who normally like DE razors.)Is the vector ti the daily driver?
M5 Adjustable would give you the greatest flexibility. @BrianWithAnI and Dave @Whiterook can surly guide you through the other models.I’m not opposed ! Any you think I should absolutely start with?
The eco just looks like it’s going to be a pain in the *** under the nose but I could be wrong.I've stayed out of this because I have never used a Bic razor and my only SHaDE razor is a Razorock Eco. The Schick Adjustable is a good recommendation, since you can dial it up or down as needed. The Schick L is a nice mild razor as well. If you want something new, the the Parker Adjustable is a good choice for a mild razor. The Supply Pro can be dialed up beyond the Parker, if looking for a more agressive razor. The Razorock Eco is inexpensive and mild, by the way.
You could be right. I have a mustache!The eco just looks like it’s going to be a pain in the *** under the nose but I could be wrong.
