Choosing a size/grind/style/etc is really based on personal preferences as to what you like, as well as what your shaving style is. I have found that larger blades require less finesse, whereas I have to be much more careful with a full hollow. But, as xman said, sharp is sharp, and any sharp razor will give a great shave.
