Hi all
OK so I've been using one of these black plastic WS razors for I think over a decade by this point.
(here it is in a video so you can see it fully)
Recently I've gotten more into all this and decided to purchase the metal WS razor...
but I found it to be... I dunno. It seems to tug more when I shave, seems to have alignment issues which the plastic one doesn't have, and just doesn't feel the same in general (in my opinion it feels worse but it could be an individual thing).
So... I was just wondering what higher quality, metal razors might feel similar to the plastic one I'm used to? I've heard that Parker, Merkur and Rockwell are all good? I've also only been using good quality razor blades recently. Up until now the WS ones but I have ordered some Feather and Astra blades online to try them out.
OK well that's about it! Oh, in case it matters the shaving foam I was using was a Nivea for Men one. Seems fine.
Thanks all!
