From my little experience, I find the british versions look better, but are really mild shavers compared to the US counterparts. The few people I have talked about this all agree with my comments that the UK made ones are milder shavers. Even the open comb #15, # 47 and #77/#88 are pretty mild shavers.

Bottom line, I feel the US made razors shave better than their UK counterparts, although the UK versions tend to look nicer.
Hello, Superbleu:

I am familiar with the razors. I was just lost in the original question. Your explanation, however, sharpens the question's focus. Many thanks.
