Hi,
by this I mean of course a fixed sort of head like the Tech/Merkur 1904
OR...
Drop head or TTO type like the superspeed.
My experience so far is that the fixed heads are weightier in the head, feel more solid, and are quieter and more efficient than their TTO counterparts.
I wonder if they clamp the blade more effectively than a TTO can?
All my really closest shave are from these simple but beautiful razors.
I have to say the TTO's are more fun! Especially me Fatboy when you can tinker with adjustment too.
But for sheer, plain doing what it says on the tin, the fixed head is doing it for me.
Cheers,
Slicktimblake etc...
