If you had to choose only one razor from your collection, what would it be?

Only have perhaps a half dozen DE razors, but if I had to pare it down to just one I would keep my 1959 Gillette "FatBoy". And, to take this a step further, if I had to choose just one of my two dozen or so shaving brushes and soaps/creams/croaps, it would be my custom Shavemac Model 177 Two-Band Silvertip Badger Hair Brush and Arko soap, respectively.

That’s good to hear. My E2 just came in the mail. My first adjustable ever! Excited for tomorrow’s shave.

Edwin Jagger DE89 hands down. I have an R41 but I hate it. Wish I never bought it.

What is it you dislike about the R41? Is it a Grande or one of the other R41 versions? The reason I ask is I just purchased an R41 Grande to give the open comb style razor a try. I like my shaves to be a bit more rather than a bit less aggressive.

Mine has not arrived yet, but I am looking forward to giving it a try.
