    I like mine as well, but it wasn't until I used heavier handles that I got my best shaves from it. The Maggard V3 Grey version is my favorite, also a bit heavier than the DE89.

    I may take some grief for this comment, but as much as I like my vintage Gillette's I find modern razors shave better IMHO.

    Although technically not a modern razor, I find my Merkur 34G shaves better than any of my safety bar Gillettes (Techs and Super Speeds). Perhaps not quite as well as the open comb Old Types and NEWs. I really like the Merkur, it's a great razor.
