Most aggressive razors out there

In my experience, the Futur on 6 is just as efficient, but more comfortable than the Fatboy set on 9.
I've recently tried a MMOC and it does shave closer than the Futur wide open, but has a more harsh feeling on my skin.

I definitely find the MMOC to have much more blade feel than my Slim on 9 but part of that is probably due to the shaving angle and the rigidity and added sharpness of the GEM blade. I find that SE's bite a lot more easily than DEs

Does the comfort of the MMOC improve with better technique, or should I shelve it and look for a more mild SE?

I've never actually taken measurements, but based on a plain-old visual inspection, while the blade gaps on the Futur are gigantic, the exposure really doesn't change too much at different settings. It almost seems as if the blade flexes more at the higher settings to maintain a fairly stable blade exposure while only adjusting the gap.

The B&B ShaveWiki has the blade gap for all Futur setting, except 1, higher than 9 on the Gillette adjustable. The Futur is also heavier so I'm going to say it's probably substantially more aggressive on pretty much any setting. I just don't find the Slim horribly aggressive on any setting since the blade exposure is rather modest.

I haven't played with it too much but it does seem to get a little better when you keep the cap close to the skin, which isn't always easy. I tend to stick with my 1914 right now for GEM SE razors or my Injector L and E models.

from the razors I've used, I'd have to say the MMOC & the Fatip Grande.

The ikon short comb is also quite aggressive

The most aggressive safety razor that I have ever tried was the Tradere OC 1 generation. If some consider ATT H2 - aggressive, then the Tradere OC would qualify for AGRRRRRRESSSIVE!

First off, why cant threads like this delineate between modern and vintage as I only use vintage, and only just received my first modern razor. A 37c (Thanks BadDad)

Since I only feel half qualified to speak on this thread I have to agree with tdmsu the the MMOC has to be the most aggressive razor I have ever touched to my face. I literally only did 2 strokes before I set it down, and sold it off. My bakelite Type E Schick is slightly aggressive, but used correctly and with due diligence it is an effective and rewarding razor.

I think of all vintage, these 2 are the most aggressive. A close third would be the MMCC. (otherwise known as the bullet tip) I didnt like this one either. The Gillette OTs are ok, and sometime better when shimmed. But that is sometime razor, and even blade specific.

Of the ones I have tried, I think I would put my Mühle R41 (2013) at the top. I also found the iKon ShaveCraft 103 Short Comb to be aggressive for the first while, but as I persisted with it, I learned to really enjoy it.

On the other hand, some people find the Mongoose (stainless) to be an aggressive razor, yet I have never once felt that way. All I get from it is smooth, pleasant shaves. (That old “mileage” adage comes to mind, once again…)
