Thread: What is your all time favorite Safety Razor?

My new favourite is the Ever Ready I won in the monthly give away. Third shave with it, BBS each time and easy to use.

My favourite safety razor is my Gillette Slim (3rd quarter of 1962). I use a Voskhod blade and the razor set at 8 and it is like being tickled by an angel!

Merkur Futur with Gillette Silver Blue. A match made in heaven if you're used to shaving with straights. That thing is a wood chopper.

Absolute favorite safety razor is a difficult call. But not to dodge the question entirely I'll say, New DE- Edwin Jagger DE89L with lined chrome extra long handle. Old DE- 1936 Gillette Aristocrat or New Type 1934 Long comb. Adjustable DE- My 1958 Fat Boy. AS for as Old SE- It's pretty much a tie between my 1915 Gem Damaskeene and my 1930 Every-Ready which I believe is actually patented off the 1912 Gem so that would make sense.

Mid 50's Gillett super speed. My first vintage de score. But I like the longer handle of my Maggards better. Over all the Gillett shaves better.

Gillette Old style Open Comb with Gillette Silver Blue blades.

Long-handled Merkur with Feather blades.

Absolutely! Mild razor with sharp blades. The 34C gets all the press. I have both and feel that the 38C is far superior.

Out of my collection I have a few that I constantly use. Gillette Fatboy @7, Weber PH w Classic Handle, Gillette Slim, Gem or EverReady 1912, Gillette BB, Gem Micromatic OC. The Fatboy was my Dads, the Slim I've used since 1962
