I have a flair tip and i have heard the 40s is a great razor.
Is a 40s super speed more aggressive than a 50s flair tip?

For me, an agressive razor doesn't equate to a better razor but I will admit to loving every 40's SS I own. They are great razors, indeed.

Apart from my 60s travel tech, the main razor I use is a 40s ss. I don't think it is too agressive. Definitely more foregiving than the travel tech.
I like my 40s Super Speed better than my flare tip. In my opinion it isn't more aggressive than the flare tip.

lots of people say the 40s feels better in the hand than a flair tip, is that the only reason?
and i like aggressive razors..they get the job done quicker lol. thats why i've a red tip on the way.
In the past couple of weeks, my 40's SS has been giving me the most BBS shaves of my life without irritation.
I use my 40's superspeed everyday, I just like the feel of it beter than the flair tip I own.
Yeah i cant say my late 40s SS shaves more aggressively then my flare tip. I think the weight and handling is better on the 40s. To me a lot more balanced. Use my everyday, of my 8 de razor it is my go to. YMMV.
I just used a 40's SS a couple days ago and found it a lot more forgiving than my Flair Tip. Seemed almost similar to a Gillette travel tech head.
I think my late 40's SS is more aggressive than my 50's Flare Tip. As others have said the 40's SS handles better and I get better feedback with it, but to me it is a more aggressive shave. BTW my late 40's SS is my favorite TTO.
