howdy!
I've got a bit of RAD flare up going on at the moment, and have been considering getting a modern, machined razor.
However, I tend to prefer a mild shaver. I have a full beard and only shave my neck, and it tends to be sensitive. I've primarily used a pre war fat handle tech for the last 3-4 years, but have recently been switching it up with a NDC 40's super speed, which seems even more comfortable, though I don't like the big head as much. I've also had a few shaves with a recently acquired fat boy. I find 3 to be as aggressive as I would care to go so far.
So, what modern, machined razors are out there that are mild like the tech or ndc super speed? By "machined," I basically mean no ZAMAK. I prefer either stainless steel or brass (like the karve).
So far, I know of:
1) feather as-d2. I've tried this and found it a bit too mild. Also don't care for the fact that it's plated.
2) karve. If I understand it correctly, the B and C plates are probably close to the tech/ndc super speed.
3) ATT M1. Seems like opinions are mixed on its mildness due to the blade exposure?
Any others that you know of?
Thanks!
