I avoided shaving for more than a decade. Electric razors and cartridge jobs left me with endless ingrown hairs and irritation so beard and clippers for me. The only thing I hadn't tried was a safety razor for fear of nicking myself into oblivion.
Enter the Henson Al-13. I'm very happy with it. Amazingly easy, close shave with very little in terms of nicking. I switched from the RK blades it came with to a slightly milder blade and I'm super happy! I can shave clean every day or two with no ingrown hairs, no irritation, no nicks.
Brilliant equipment and extremely well machined. You can switch to milder blades if you're struggling, or more aggressive ones if you need. The ability to tune the handle to fit your skin and hair is absolutely game changing. Truly BIFL.
Upvoting this whole chain because I can't multi-upvote OP too
