Compared to a Slim ?

What razors would you say the Slim covers? In order from 1 - 9 .

 

1-nothing it is useless except for buffing one's secret parts. Maybe.
2-Feather Popular
3-Gillette Tech
4-5-Super Speed
6-7-Red Tip

Just a rough guesstimate of course.

 

What the Red Tip is that mild!? what would a 8-9 be?

 

I haven't tried any DE razors that look/feel like a 9 which is why I left it blank... The gap on 9 seems bigger than the Red Tip's gap. They both have pretty small blade exposure- about the same. Also the blade exposure on the Red Tip looks exactly the same as a regular SS- it is only the weight and blade gap that is different. I'm sure most people will say the Slim isn't that aggressive anyways on any setting.

Anyways treat my answers with a grain of salt. I don't think ,for example, with the Tech which is a three piece design with a different geometry translates really well to a TTO one.

 

Well mild or not I love it. The hunt finally payed off.

 

They are nice all around razors.

 

I thought I read somewhere that a adjustable set on three
was
about like a normal tech
please correct me if I'm wrong

 

I realize this is old but for clarity Flare Tip Super Speed?

 

The flare tip and 40s style- they seem the same to me.

 

This article on Safety Razors: Blade Gaps lists a number of razors covered by the Slim Adjustable.
