Recommend me an aggresive non TTO razor. I like a little weight to my razors as well. I want to try the non TTOs but have been spoiled by my fatboy.

Have you tried any open comb razors? Those are generally considered aggressive.

I love my New Improved.

big boy or big fellow? maybe a merk hd.

+1. You could also look for a Barbasol, which is heavy and more aggressive than those mentioned.

I haven't tried any yet, may have to watch the BST.

What about a single edge? The 1912's and Micromatics will mow through just about anything put in front of them.

I have a micromatic on the shelf next to my others, the mexican market down the road sells Gem blades.

Love my MM's, especially the Clog Pruf model. Give it a spin and see what you think.

Gillette New is a good choice as are of the Old Type razors that predate the New Series. Those models were designed for a thicker blade. While I don't know if they were originally meant to be aggressive, they certainly are with a contemporary blade in them.

All can be found at flea markets, antique stores and on eBay.

i'd say a new/improved might suit you well. good heft with a bit more aggression. a double ring or big fellow would probably work as well.

Fingas,

Try an 'E' model Schick, or a Merkur Slant Bar. The Slant Bar is not as aggressive as the Schick, but provides a good, close shave.

Have fun !

Best regards

You know the REAL DEAL here - The Merkur Futur, pushing 4 1/2 ozs. - crank it up to 5 or 6 and stare in awe at the blade gap!

The new Pils razor. Thanks to the amazing generosity of a B&B member, I just finished trying one out, and was delighted with the weight and the balance of the razor. It's awfully "spendy", but it's a great razor!

 

[amspratt]

+1 for the New Improved. Somewhat tough to come by, but a beautiful, fairly aggressive razor.

True. Very true.

Nice gesture, Alex!
