I'm not saying it's not good, it's actually a v. competent razor, but I get no particular enjoyment out of it, it's got no soul...Naked Ape said:FB, give the HD another crack in a wee while. Recently I started using mine again after months of ignoring it. I was really surprised at how good it was, and how much I enjoyed using it. Something must have happened to my technique in the intervening period.

The same here. I started with the Wilkinson then moved to a 34G HD (same as the 34C except it's gold). Of course that led to a lot more razor purchases :shave . Most used? The Merkur Futur, but all my others get an occasional day out as wellandyjreid said:First time I ever tried DE shaving it was with a black plastic wilkinson classic..... I was very young at the time.
When I decided to seriously start DE shaving, last year, It was a 34C
