I'm in the market for a new razor

[Alessandro]

I could use some advice about a new razor. I have had very good success with a Murker 23C, which means that I can handle a more aggressive blade now. How do these compare?
Gillette Aristocrat
Gillette Rocket
Gillette Super Speed red tip
Muhle R89
Edwin Jagger DE89L
Merkur HD

I am using a Mercur 12C in my rotation. It is an open comb but not quite as agressive as a Gillette "Old Type." It's one of my faves. DFS or better every time.

Be sure to check out the Merkur Classic 1904, I think its the best DE I've ever used.

I've got all of them and my pick would be these two.

Gillette Super Speed red tip
Muhle R89

I have a Red Tip and don't find it aggressive at all.

Perhaps you should also consider either an adjustable, such as a vintage Slim or Fatboy, which would let you "dial up" different levels of aggressiveness, or a Slant of some sort if you're looking for "true" aggressive?
