Do the British Aristocrats shave any better than the Rockets / AJs?

I have been watching the British Aristocrats sell for crazy money both on here and on fleabay and was just wondering if it is worth paying up for them. I can see that they are stunning razors and presumably wear very well with the rhodium plating. However, I do already have a Rocket HD and an Aristocrat Junior (both of which shave very well). Apart from aesthetics do those British Aristocrats actually shave any better????

Thanks
 
It's all a matter of personal taste/opinion.

I don't care for the shave the Rocket gives me, but the British #66 is one of my top two razors. But that's my face/beard only.

My advice: you have two razors that shave great, so you're in no hurry for a better razor. The British razors are going through a popular phase, and that will end. If you can wait a few months, you can probably pick one up for a more reasonable price than what you're currently seeing.
