    Yeah aggressiveness usually means the blade exposure and blade curvature as well.
    I'd say for a first DE, don't buy a 2011 R41, it's a unforgiving beast that can rip your face off easily. I have one and it's one challenging DE for sure. It demands perfect prep and perfect lather, even more so than a straight razor.
    That said I've had some awesome shaves with it, but for a first you'd be much better off with a EJ89, Merkur 34C or 37C for a first DE.
