Please clarify this post. I am not sure which of these razors you used, or what combination of them from this post. Sorry for the confusion & thanks for the help.

22nd razor for Open Comb OCtober is:
It's time to repeat one of my razors. I still own a couple that I haven't shaved with this month and I might use them before the end of October.
I've shaved again with French L'Essor this morning, but I have attached my UFO Tornado handle. This razor is very aggressive as you can tell by the blade exposure photo below, but it's a joy to use.
La Toja soap face lathered with Semogue boar brush.
Voskhod blade.
Speick splash.
It's aggressive ! See blade exposure below:

Great looking handle!
Oops. I used a ball handle OT, military issue.
Thank you. That UFO Tornado of yours is even better looking.

Shave no. 21. I used my 2nd gen. Tradere OC, Feather(1) & MWF. A nice comfortable shave,but for some reason the shave wasn't that close & I am sporting a midday shadow at present. I will probably go back to my H2 tomorrow.

NEW LC
Personna Lab Blue blade
Rudy Vey keyhole brush
Mike's Hungarian Lavender soap
Ogallala Bay Rum
BBS
Another nice comfortable shave with my NEW LC. I don't know what it is about me, but so many say the NEW LC & NEW SC feel the same. IME, they are dramatically different. I can get great and comfortable shaves with the NEW LC, but with the NEW SC, while I can get a BBS, it is not all that comfortable. I guess this is why they made all the different varieties.

Oct 22, shave 22: Khaki set. Everytime I use one of my khaki sets I get chills thinking of who may have used this razor in WWI. Did he make it through? I think of the horrors and atrocities he must have seen. The I think of my "problems" and realize I don't have any problems.

Goodwill SC made in Argentina
It looks just like a regular 160, but it is made from a NEW SC baseplate.
This razor delivered a perfectly good shave, but not as good as the last 2 days. It is a bit too mild for me.
