I basically stopped buying razors after finding this efficient open comb, under $50 also which is a great price considering how much others costed me also.
One use only for my Ikon X3 and Merkur slant. The X3 was not intimidating and gave a decent shave. The Merkur was "too close" (now I know what the expression "skinned alive" means).I own the IKON x3 and it's one of my favorite razors. The IKON x3 slant is very smooth and very efficient for me. I wasn't a fan of the IKON b1 though.
