Hi All!
After getting even deeper into this rabid hole and trying out some single edge stuff (Alumigoose and GEM Bullet Tip) I'm finding that I'm really enjoying the feedback these razors give. There is a very noticeable sound when shaving and blade feel on the skin. Neither is harsh but you can feel where the blade is and what it is doing, angle, pressure etc... I find that this combined with the auditory cues has been giving me really great shaves in that I'm better able to feel and hear what I'm doing and hone in on the correct cutting angle, pressure etc... much more easily.
I'm looking for some DE's to try that would have these similar qualities. I've got a number of DE's right now like Feather, Gillette Tech, Maggard Slant etc... But I don't find any of them to give the feedback I want. It feels like I'm shaving blind in that I don't feel much or hear much comparatively. The closest I have right now in DE is the Maggard V3A in terms of feel but not much sound. That said, I'm still getting good shaves with minimal irritation but I'm just miss that engagement and feel that I could be getting better shaves with more feedback.
So I'm looking for suggestions on razors that have tons of feedback. I'm wide open on price for this too so throw anything out there
