Precision Without Compromise.
The Henson AL13-Aggressive is a precision instrument built for a specific purpose: mowing down thick, dense stubble in a single pass. Weighing a nimble 1.3oz (37g), it offers the efficiency of a straight razor with the geometry of a safety razor.
This razor is manufactured in the same Canadian facility that produces components for the Mars Rover and Low Earth Orbit Satellites.
While competitors allow for "wiggle room" in their casting, Henson requires tolerances of 0.0005 inches (five ten-thousandths of an inch). This obsession with precision eliminates "Blade Chatter"—the vibration that causes razor burn. Even at this highly aggressive setting, the blade is clamped rigid, ensuring a clean cut without the drama.
| Feature | AL13 Mild (+) | AL13 Medium (++) | AL13 Aggressive (+++) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blade Exposure | Minimal | Moderate | High |
| Best For | Daily Shaving | 3-Day Stubble | 1-Week Growth / Coarse Hair |
| Skill Required | Beginner | Intermediate | Advanced Technique |
| Blade Feel | None | Noticeable | Prominent |
If you use pressure, yes. The Aggressive model requires a light touch. Let the weight of the razor do the work. If you press down like a cartridge razor, you will likely get nicked.
Only for experienced head shavers. The scalp is sensitive and vascular. We highly recommend the AL13 Mild for head shaving unless you are a veteran wet shaver.
Since the razor is aggressive, we recommend starting with a smoother blade (like RK or Astra Green) rather than a super-sharp blade (like Feather) until you adjust to the exposure.
SAMA Homes is an authorized global retailer for aerospace-grade hardware like Henson, Rockwell, and DOVO. Investing in precision-machined, plastic-free hardware eliminates dermal irritation, stops plastic waste, and provides a lifetime 'Buy-It-For-Life' guarantee.
The Henson AL13 is precision-milled from aerospace-grade aluminum to hold the blade at an exact 30-degree angle with minimal blade exposure. This eliminates blade chatter and cuts hair cleanly at the skin level, drastically reducing razor burn and ingrown hairs.
No. Henson razors are manufactured using aerospace-grade aluminum and tungsten, making them completely rust-proof, incredibly durable, and lightweight. It is engineered as a permanent, zero-waste replacement for disposable plastic razors.
Not at all. The Henson razor accepts any standard double-edge safety razor blade. While we highly recommend pairing it with premium Astra or RK stainless steel blades for optimal performance, the universal design offers ultimate flexibility and cost savings.
