Hey all, I was wondering how you hold onto your razors while shaving. I don't know if there are any terms regarding your grip on the razor but I use the pinky (in this case ring finger) support grip with open fingers when going WTG or XTG:
As opposed to the closed grip:
I find that with the fingers open it is much easier to change angles to adapt to the geometry of my face.
For ATG, I use a...special grip that I have found works very well because compared to just flipping the hand it does not get in the way of my sight and its just easier and feels more natural to me:
As opposed to the reverse hand grip:
Just thought it would be interesting to know how others were gripping their razors
