How aggressive is a 38c Merkur?

[RandalltheRed]

I own a 38c and it is only razor I own at the moment. How would you rate the 38c in terms of aggressiveness? How would it compare to say a red tip ss?
What number on a Progress?

Have a read through the below wiki link..

If I am not mistaken, the 38C the exact same razor as the 34C with a different handle.

Thanks for the link. It helps put it into perspective for me.

Correct, but the extra weight in the larger/heavier handle does make it a little more aggressive than the 34C if you aren't really careful with pressure.
