    The Red Tip is a very efficient razor IMO. If that's what's meant by "aggressive" then so be it. However I have also found that the personality of a razor can change dramatically with a change of blade. I think that's what you found.

    Yep. It's a lot of fun finding different combinations. My problem is I usually don't remember the combos that work and go on to the next experiment.

    I could have the best technique in the universe but a derby blade in a feather popular which I tried and left me like a butchered lamb... no technique could saved that shave.

    A bad blade, not so easy to overcome, is it? Throw it away, you must, or consume you it will.

    Why stop there? Try an injector to add to the confusion.

    Well thanks to this post, I'm now on the lookout for a red tip...
    Just have to convince swmbo that I actually "need" one. I have a blue tip, and paired with a wilkinson sword blade gives me a great daily shave, but I'd like to find a decent red tip to see if it's a bit more agrees I've than my rocket, I believe it will be.

    I love the Red Tip handle too. I wish I could put it on my HD500.
