WHAT is the purpose of an OPEN comb? I can ONLY imagine it would be for LONGER beards whereas a closed comb would be for the whiskers? What's the open comb all about? Mine are all closed comb. THANX!
Three features of the open comb:
- Works better with longer whiskers (as you pointed out), without clogging.
- There is no safety bar wiping away the cream ahead of the blade, so the blade edge gets maximum lubrication.
[*]Great for hairs that lie flat against the skin, because the safety bar isn't pressing them down.
And with that, you've sold me on trying an open comb style razor.
