Your opinion please, Gentlemen, of the Merkur 42C? Thinking of ordering one tomorrow.
It sounds like you want an Open Comb razor. Have you tried one before?Oh, mild? Unfortunately that's not what I'm after. Thanks mate. I probably need to lean toward medium aggressing. Any suggestions? Thank you.

If you want a Vintage then try the Gillette NEW Long Comb.
There are modern Open Combs too of course. I haven't tried too many modern OCs though so can't give recommendations. I know @Drubbing likes the Merkur 25C and others here have an iKon OC or ATT OC. Oh! Speedy is raving about his Razorock Mission razor which is an OC from memory. There are Fatips too (which I find would be more "aggressive" than what you're after I think).No, I haven't tried an open comb. I will have a look at the Gillette NEW Long Comb, thanks!

Thanks boys. Struth!!! A couple of weeks ago I had finally had enough of razor burn from my Remington cordless and disposables so I decided to go back to wet shaving after thirty odd years........ what could be difficult about that?
A lot of people of your generation often have bad memories of it. The choice of razors and blades was almost zero and few were taught, or taught by people who learned badly and suffered through having to shave. A lot different now, the net makes it easy to get almost anything, and you can also get what our dads never had - help.
