Edwin Jagger 3ONE6
The Edwin Jagger 3ONE6 Stainless Steel Closed Comb Safety Razor stands out for its superior construction and elegant design. Crafted from high-grade 316 stainless steel with the option for an anodised aluminum grooved colored handle, this razor provides a substantial feel and excellent blade fit, ensuring durability. The handle’s checkered knurling offers a firm grip, even when wet, promoting a secure and comfortable shaving session.
In terms of performance, this razor is lauded for its more aggressive shave compared to the DE89 and Merkur HD 34C, yet less so than the Mühle R41 or an iKon Tech, striking a perfect balance for daily use and efficient handling of multi-day beard growth. Its modern yet classic appeal is enhanced by the distinctive Edwin Jagger logo, adding a touch of sophistication to the shaving experience. With a comfortable length and a weighty feel, the Edwin Jagger 3ONE6 offers control and quality, making it a favorable choice for enthusiasts looking for an upgraded shaving experience.

Key Facts
Editorial Reviews
Sharpologist
Sharpologist describes the Edwin Jagger 3ONE6 razor as a luxurious and visually attractive addition to the premium razor market. The reviewer was impressed with the clean-looking stainless steel head design and noted that the top cap effectively covers the blade tabs. Despite a preference for heavier razors, the reviewer adapted to the 3ONE6's lighter weight and smaller handle diameter, eventually achieving smooth and comfortable shaves. Interestingly, the review found that the razor, while seemingly mild during the shave, proved to be deceptively efficient, as evidenced by 'weepers' post-shave. High-performance Feather blades were mentioned as a particularly good match for the 3ONE6, elevating the shaving experience to among the best with a lightweight double-edge razor.
Sharpologist concludes that, performance-wise, the Edwin Jagger 3ONE6 is competitive in its price bracket and a worthy upgrade from the brand's DE89 line. The dual personality in terms of material—full stainless steel or mixed anodized aluminum with stainless steel—offers options for different preferences. The razor is deemed exceptionally comfortable on the skin, offering a balance of feedback and gentleness. The reviewer suggests choosing the version that best aligns with one's preference for weight, handle feel, and visual appeal.
