I'm not at all satisfied with my Edwin Jagger. I need a good razor it's fairly aggressive because my whiskers are like barbed wire. So please recommend me a decent razor that's fairly aggressive.

One thing to consider is that any change to your blade, razor, or cream can take roughly two weeks to really test since your beard has to adjust. If you haven’t put in that sort of time, you may not have really tested it properly.

Been using Praraso, Bic Platinum blades and my razor for a long time.
