    How does the 3 British razors shave and what are the differences of the 66,16 and 21, they look very similar.

    They shave very similiar in my opinion. The #21 and #16 will have the thick heavy flat plate like an Aristocrat Jr. The #66 does not. The #16 and #66 function like a Rocket with a diminishing handle length as the doors are opened, the #21 stays a constant length.

    Any one of these would make a great heirloom shaver. If I could only pick one it'd be a toss up between the #16 and #21.
