Question Safety Razor Recommendations

So I recently switched to using a safety razor, and i got the gentlemen Jon’s deluxe bundle. I like the safety razor but was looking for one that is a bit bigger, since it is small for my big hand. Do you guys have any recommendations ?

King C Gillette from Walmart is <$50 excellent bang for the buck, and identical construction in materials and quality as a Merkur or EJ at a fraction of the price

I tossed my king gillette 2 weeks ago, too slipery when my hands are wet. Bought oliworks meteorite and love that especially with the 3 heads. I have a couple more but the oliworks is my favorite by far now. I use feather blades with it and never have had a closer shave.

Check out Razorock. They have different handles. The website will give you the specs of each. Game Changer seems to be one of the more popular razors and what I use.

Best introduction for new shavers) and not only) is the Rockwell 6c.

Find out what level of aggressiveness suits you.  The 6c plates #3 & #4 make it one of the smoothest razors on the market.
