I like shiny.I voted 3 piece, mostly because I can swap around handles.
But I'll take anything that's shiny.
Some of the TTO Aristocrats and 3-piece fixed handle Gillettes (NI/New Deluxe) are beautiful by themselves too.

CuriosFrom a utilitarian, convenience standpoint, I understand why TTOs and DE blades loaded from cartridges came to dominate. I still prefer a 3-piece. Better shaves with less bulk, handles can be changed out, far more of choices among models, both in vintage and modern designs.
In the DE forum it is just a piece.Curios
Is a cartridge considered a 1 or 2 piece?
Nice observation.In the DE forum it is just a piece.
I'd call a cart a 2 piece, with a disposable as a 1 piece.
That lovely long neck Shovelhead in your atavar is a flip-to-open 1 piece, until you take the handle off.
As it turns out, I seemed to have submitted my message before I finished my thought. We typically see open combs in 3-pieces these days, so my vote is for 3-piece razors. Sorry for the apparent lapse in my first post.As it turns out, I think I prefer open combs. Who knew?
