    Default Which would you choose?

    Which razor would you choose a TI Grelot 6/8 w.Rams Horn Scales, a Henckles Friodur 7/8 with custom Snakewood scales or, a Wacker 13/16 in Buffalo Horn scales?

    I'd get the Wacker. I already have one Friodur, and I am not a fan of TIs. Plus I've never tried a Wacker before.

    (I wouldn't actually get any of them, but you limited the options....)

    What do you think of the Friodur? In that general range what would you get?

    I really like the Friodur - she's a smooth shaver with no drama. I also like the squarish tang.

    In that range, I'd go vintage no questions asked. You can get some very very nice blades, regardless of the style, for $250ish and get way more for your money (imo).

    Oh, I wouldn't mind a Revisor, though. I've been thinking about one of those 8/8 eagle ones...

    Personally I'd go with the Wacker. I have one and they're great lookers and great shavers.

    I have 2 Friodur and love it. Half the price of a cheep Wacker. I personally would go for a Wacker. I have a TI The art of shaving. Dont know how they compair to the other TI. Its been a few weeks since shaving with my Friodur but i think my the frio is a tad better than the TI. I would have to do a back to back shave to give a better review.
