What is it that makes a razor more aggressive than another? Is it the amount of blade exposed from under the top plate or silo doors or is it the size of the gap between the safety bar and the blade edge? Or maybe a combination of both? I have a 40s style SS and a New Parker and the Parker is WAY more aggressive but I'm trying to figure out why.
On another note, do you find that a more aggressive razor requires a certain type of blade and a more mild one needs something different? I have found that Astras shave me much better in the Parker than the old Gillette.
