This has probably been discussed frequently here, so apologies for taking the lazy route, but thinking of going for a stainless steel DE. Trying to decide between these two. Any thoughts? I really wish Weber would release more DLC or ARC heads, but I'm not so sure they will. If they did that would probably make my decision a lot easier.
IKON vs Weber

Weber's really tough like that. They sell out almost immediately after they hit the proverbial shelf.
Weber.
Weber.
I've sold all of my iKon razors

Another vote for Weber here.
Ikon. Unlike Weber, you can actually buy them.
I wanted Weber, due to price and design, but missed out on their "releases".
Bought an Ikon OSS, instead, and love it. Got the SB deck, then the OC deck.
All are excellent. Of the three, I prefer the OSS and the new OC.
Bullgoose has them.
YMMV!

The OC deluxe is on sale at Bullgoose! For the three weeks I've had mine I've loved every shave with it.

If you can find a Weber DLC, the get it! However, i would still go with the Weber Polished Head. They are great razors. Good luck.
No experience w/ Ikon but my Weber w/ polished head is fantastic. My favorite razor.
I have had no experience with Weber, but I have a couple of iKon razors: an OSS and an OC with the new Bulldog handle. They are great razors! Heavy, smooth, and effective, especially the OC. Still, nothing is as smooth as my Feather AS-D1...
Weber or Ikon will be my next shaving purchase. I have enough blades to last me a while, I'm satisfied with my soaps/brush.... Just trying to decide on the next razor.
If I could find a DLC or ARC, my decision would be made.

I bought an Ikon OC as well and really like it a lot. I'm starting to think I like the aggressiveness of my Fatip a bit more, especially after 2 days of growth, but it has nowhere near the fit & finish of the Ikon.
i vote for ikon
I love my weber with the polished head and bulldog handle.
If it was me I would choose the weber, and I get to keep the money in the US. But I already have a asd1 w/ a ikon OC baseplate.
I have the Ikon Oss and Weber DLC. Weber wins...
No experience with Ikon razors but the Weber DLC is easily my favorite razor
I'm seriously tempted by the Ikon OC. Can anyone tell me how it shaves in comparison to a Weber or a Tradere OC? To be honest I think those two pretty much cover my needs, but every time I see a photo of the Ikon I want it.
My Weber is the favorite of my fifteen razors.
