Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • The production quality of the Henson is awesome since it’s machined
  • some people say machining on Henson is a lot better, tolerances are closer.
  • I have paired them with a Henson and rarely get knicks and can get a smooth shave with 2-3 passes.
  • after using a mild Henson for two years.
  • Yes, Henson is very good.

Cons

  • The reason for not getting the henson is that its DE. Admittedly it still has the hand holding capability that Im after but that is only half of the reason I want another razor, the other half is it being a SE.
  • I want a leaf (and not a henson) specifically for the smaller "head" to allow myself to be a bit zippier with it
  • I was so unsure of what 'style' of aggressive I needed so I avoided the mercur or henson, that initially attracted me more
  • The Henson is fine, I just find it a little too light for my tastes. I also find anodized aluminum a bit draggy.
  • milder than my Henson at 1.
