Argh… I sent a PM message and an email directly to Henson asking to purchase an aggressive razor from them… no reply whatsoever. Guess the economy is so good they don’t need my business! Glad I have other awesome razors and will write this company off.

They only made the aggressive in titanium.
They won't be doing another run of titanium for a few months.
A couple online vendors still have a few of these available (Maggard's, Pasteur)

One Titanium left available at Maggard's. Looks to be the very last of all vendors online.

Sorry Paul, that's probably my bad. I know we talked about the Aggressive razor. I don't think I detailed the availability.

The Aluminum only was available in Aggressive as a test run, prior to the Titanium release. They never officially released the Aluminum in Aggressive. There are a handful out there, but you'd definitely have to hunt the BST thread.

My apologies if I steered you wrong.

Yeah, I tried using the discount code even though I knew it had officially expired because, you never know, right? But the order form grabbed the code, tied a kettlebell to its leg, and tossed it over the side.

Wow. That's a cruel form! Did it look anything like this? Maybe, just with a pirate hat on? Lol.[Image: 8333f2f3cf87eb22ba17bf3efca1503d.jpg]

Something I just recently noticed about the AL13: The length of the head is exactly 43.0 mm, and the length of the blades is 42.7 mm.
That means that the end tabs of the blade do not stick out, but when you disassemble the head and the blade is stuck to soap on the base plate or cap, the skin on my fingertips is flexible enough that I can still grasp the blade ends to remove it safely.

I don't know if that's by design or coincidence, but it seems to be the best of both worlds - for people who don't like blades sticking out past the head, and for people (like me) who are annoyed at having to use a magnet to pick the blade off the base plate (as with the Futur and clones).

It’s actually so awesome. My blades sometimes stick to base plates of other razors and have to carefully remove them. Not the Henson.
