Feeling like I need a slant back in my collection as I don't currently have one , really like the look of the ATT one , but just wondered for those that have them , what is your favourite slant ?

The Merkur 37C. Another warrior that has stood the test of time.

Like you though, I've fancied an ATT S1 for some time. If you get one, I'll be pestering you to let me try it

I've also got a Parker 55SL in the den I need to try at some point. Reviews are pretty favourable for those

Merkur 39c.I've tried PAA and ATT, to name some abbreviations but Merkur is very good.

The 37C is great. I also have an Ikon X3 which I like a lot.

The 37C and 39C are both very good
The Ikon 102, although not much talked about beats both of the above for me, and
I regret selling mine

Ikon shavecraft X3 for me. Aluminium head, smoother razor in my opinion compared to the 37C but efficient nonetheless.
Get the job done.

Merkur 39c. Perfect for a single pass work shave.

Loved the ATT S1 but hated the ATT S2 weirdly. I have a Hoffritz which is as good as anything modern, and I get an extra buzz from its vintage-ness.

On paper the Wunderbar might be the best, but I think the Hoffritz is the one I'd save in a fire.

Yet another shout for the 37c.
It just seems to work well with a large array of blades.
Super solid performer that sits just behind my Rockwell 6c in terms of “favourites”, I like it that much.

My "go to"razor is the 39C, whih isheaver and longer than the 37C (though I'm wanting a 37C as as travel razor). Can highly recommend it.

I've only tried the ATT S1 and S2. The S1 was my fav razor due to being such a smooth and safe razor, you are almost allowed to be reckless with it

The S2 demands a little more respect and I find it more efficient than the S1. I like it too

Boringly enough - another vote for the Merkur 37c and the Ikon X3 - in my opinion - neither can be faulted - any blade you like - they work. cheers - I

Likewise, I'm interested in a new slant razor. Previously owning a 37c. I thought the Parker slant would have had more love. It's on my radar - always like to read owners reviews and observations.
