    Does anyone have knowledge of Razorock’s DE line up? As far as I understand it, the heads and handles are interchangeable and other than one being an open comb, I don’t know the meaningful difference between their 10+ heads.

        Yeah I saw this, even in each category there are over 5 different razors.

      I’d say the most popular one is the Game Changer series. Do you have a razor that you like right now? Do you think you’d prefer something milder, more aggressive, or the same?

        I have a Merkur Futur clone that I use on the 5 setting. I should probably measure the blade gap. I’ll have to find myself some calipers.

          Is 5 a middle setting?

          Blade gap is only part of the equation, so if it turns out to be 0.68mm, for example, it’s still going to be quite different than a Game Changer .68. I’ve measured blade gap before and feeler gauges are the way to go if you’re curious.

              If you already have calipers I won’t stop you! I have a pair of digital calipers and the feeler gauges seemed like a much better tool for the job!

            6 is max. But when I used an open comb I shredded my face. If I had to guess, it likely maxed out at around middle aggressiveness.
