Your favourite DE?

I just received a Parker A1R (4 piece) a couple of days ago as a gift from my girlfriend and ive got to say it's given me the best, irritation free, smooth bbs shave of any safety razor I've used. 

What is yours?

I'm biased, but my favorite DE that isn't mine is the BBS-1. I also like the Aristocrat quite a bit, mostly for aesthetics.

I still got a lot to learn but so far it's a toss up between the Barbasol floating head and the Gillette Black Beauty adjustable.

ATT S1

ATT S2 & Edwin Jagger Bulbous Lined Chrome

(Have yet to try a Wolfman though)

My prediction is that a lot of people will pick a Wolfman in this thread.......let's see if I'm correct 

This is a hard choice so I have to pick two, the Above The Tie S2 and Fatip Grande.

tough question, tough choices, so I guess I fail because I can't choose just one

wolfman, blackbird, 1934 aristocrat, EJ89. I can't just pick one since 2 razors I have been using for years and 2 razors have in the last 6 months moved out 2 razors in my rotation pulse I include in my rotation 2 SE's.

ATT M2 or fatboy. The Atlas handle is a favorite for sure.

ATT S1 and Wolfman for modern razors. Gillette Aristocrat and Gillette Rocket for vintage.

I get my best shaves from either a Gillette Super Adjustable or a good old EJ89. RAD never struck me, so I haven't tried that many.

Feather AS D2

or

Gillette Aristocrat Jr with flat blade tray.

I must give due to the razor that started it all for me and a whole lot of other folks at the beginning of the wetshaving revival; The MERKUR HD.
It's well balanced, aggressive enough for a seasoned shaver yet forgiving to new users. There were some QC issues at one point and I never heard
of any resolution. Mine did suffer some early pitting on the baseplate edge. Oddly enough, my daily user; a Edwin Jaeger 89 has developed the
same issue and  local. But for the price point a new user is hard pressed to find better. I will probably buy a replacement soon.

Weber DLC  

LA BBS-1

If you mean favourite, as in gives best shave, I would say BBS-1, hands down, both efficiency and comfort. However, if I could only keep one of my razors, I would still pick one of the Wolfmans, they still give a great shave but aesthetically I find them so much cooler. Brothers by another name anyway.

Merkur Progress. I gotta give love to my Wolfman but I've gone back to the Progress more. Just got a Mergress in and will give it a first run in the morning. 
Have to agree with Kav though on the HD. Was my first DE and will always be in my den.

Feather AS-D2.

When it came into our household at the end of October, I had in my possession:  

• An iKon DLC Slant;
• A Standard Razors razor;  
•  A Feather MR3 neo cartridge razor; and  
•   A Schick Hydro3 cartridge razor.  
  

Since that time, when it is time to shave I have reached for the Feather AS-D2 all but a half dozen times.
It’s a keeper.

I'm currently really enjoying the shave provided by the Blackbird, but I'm also very fond of the Wolfman...
