do you prefer a heavy handle.. or heavy head?
having exactly two safety razors in my rotation.. i've noticed the main difference in where the weight of the razor is.. my merkur 34c has a heavy handle.. which i hold near the end and let the weight work for me..
my other shaver is a gillette slim adjustable.. the weight of the razor is in the head.. i seem to prefer it this way and get a nicer shave.. which really makes me want to try the pils next..
anyway.. does anyone else have any input on how the "balance" of their de effects their shave?
Heavy Handle or Heavy Head . . .
Gentlemen:
I do prefer the heavy and well-balanced razors, although I will always give a nod to those with a slightly heavier head.
Regards,
Obie
