What is the difference between and open comb and a closed comb when it comes to feel when shaving.
...The open comb head gives you a closer shave because the skin is less stretched and the hair,
slipping into the prongs of the comb, moves closer to the blade...
How aggressive a razor is has more to do with its designed geometry than the comb style.
Can you please list mild OC razors?+1! There are aggressive CC razors as well as mild/moderate OC razors.
I personally find OC razors harsh on my face. That is MY issue though. Many use them with no issue whatsoever. The only thing is to give one a whirl and see how you get on. Plus you need to report back to us on your experience.

Jaco! "Birdland" is a tour de force masterpiece. And his work with Joni Mitchel is so sublime. He was so talented, but so troubled; as the most poignant artists often are.OC razors are the fretless bass guitar of shaving. They are jazzy, think Jaco Pastorius and Marcus Miller.

OC razors by design almost always have more blade exposure due to the gaps between the teeth and that is bad juju for the curvier areas of the face IMO.
Parker 24/26c is very mild.Can you please list mild OC razors?
From 3 i have tried only Merkur 25c I would consider to be mild but i prefer Black Beauty 109 on 5 over 25c with GSB blade
See/try Ikon's B1 Standard and Tech razors.I've found an SB can bite as easily and as well as an OC.
