Safety Taper Scheermes £60 - D R Harris London

Switching to a double-edge blade felt intimidating, but this razor made it easy. The taper handle gives me way more control around my jawline than my old cartridge ever did, and I get a closer shave with less irritation. Blades are cheap too, so it pays for itself.

I was nervous about switching from cartridge razors, but the double-edge blade with that tapered handle gives me far better control around my jawline than I ever expected. Shaving now feels deliberate and precise instead of rushed.

The taper on the handle gives a really secure grip even with wet hands, and the blade sits at an angle that feels precise without being aggressive. I’ve had zero nicks since switching from a cartridge, which surprised me for a first-time double-edge user.
