does anyone know what setting on the futur would equal the hd? no point in me getting the futur or slan if it isnt more aggressive than the hd
so theres no point in getting a slant than if you have a futur?
which is more aggressive, the futur or progress?
i'm looking for something that is way more aggressive than the hd, it takes me 5 passes or more to achieve a bbs shave
There is no need to calibrate it. There is a screw adjustment, so if you open the razor one number from the current closing reading, it will be a 2 setting. Or if you open 2 numbers, it will be at setting 3, etc. You can even close the razor cap 180 degree "wrong" if you want and it does not really matter at all.Aren't the adjustment numbers on the Progress different for almost every razor? By that I mean that a 1 on someone's Progress might be a 1.5 on someone else's, etc.
The Wiki has a listing of razors arranged by aggressiveness: http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/index.php/Double-Edged_Safety_Razors_Ranked_by_Aggressiveness
argh, i might pull the trigger and get the futur and slant
maybe the progress if they ever replace the plastic part
i'd say 1 1/2 would be equal to an hd. My 37c delivers a completely different shave than my hd, (better) . However, i've heard other members state repeatedly that there the same.
