Favorite Non-Gillette DE razor?

Saw a thread about your favorite Gillette, and thought I'd ask the logical next question:

Of the Non-Gillette DE's you own, which is your current favorite?

For me, it's honestly my vintage open-comb Merkur. I like my Maggard MR6B because of its weight, and I like my Merkur 34C as a daily driver, but there is something about the classy little vintage 3-piece Grafco Merkur I have that draws me to it.

Maybe it's the bas-relief profile of Mercury on the handle. Or the fact that it's compact yet classically styled. Or the fact that it seems to be my mildest open comb razor. Not sure... I just know it is one razor I don't plan to let go of.

 

HM... I don't own a double edge razor that isn't Gillette. I did and then it got broken.

 

Doh. What was it?

 

Well if my Weber didn't suffer form a wavy blade it would be a Weber. Maybe I will buy another eventually.

 

so far, it's my Merkur 39c.
but the Matador elegante is a nice shave

 

Vintage, clearly my Star DE.
Modern, My Weber SS PH

 

Only non Gillette I own.

Edwin jagger de89. Lined handle.

 

Schick Krona hands down. In fact, I don't even use my Gillette razors anymore.

 

Easy one for me...the 2011 R41 version by a slim margin over the 2013. Both exceptional razors.

 

I forgot about the star and the krona.
guess that in itself says something.

 

My favorite razor is my Weber 3pc.

 

My Second is my Schick Krona


My Third favorite is my Above the Tie

 

as of this morning I would have to say that my favorite is the Lutz slant. before today I would have said the open comb Cadet and before I got the cadet it was any Gillette slim adj

 

For me it's easy - it's my Barbasol Floating Head razor. I use it at least once a week.

 

I am partial to the Segal Unitary even though blades are scarce. It has a perfect weight and i like the handle a lot. I also think its neat.

 

one of those pot metal razors I bet.

 

Not very fancy, but my DE89 is my current favorite non-Gillette. But I've got an unbranded OC that is very nice also. They're completely different shaves. Both nice, bit different.

 

My iKon 5piece DLC

 

That is one razor I have yet to try myself. Very nice.

 

My Merkur 34c HD is the only non Gillette razor, and it was my first DE razor that I got in May. I also have a travel version of this razor that has a 3 piece handle.
