Hardware Comparison Guide

  • The Henson Precision: Unlike adjustable cast razors, the Henson AL13 is aerospace-milled to fix blade exposure at exactly 30 degrees. This mathematically eliminates blade chatter and razor burn, making it the ultimate choice for sensitive skin.
  • Compared to Rockwell 6C: The Henson is significantly lighter (~37g vs ~100g) with zero moving parts, prioritizing consistent, effortless daily glide over variable aggressiveness.
β›” STOP: Expert Level Only This is the AL13-Aggressive (+++). It features significant positive blade exposure.

If you are new to wet shaving, have sensitive skin, or shave daily, DO NOT BUY THIS RAZOR. It is designed exclusively for experienced users with very coarse hair or multi-day growth.

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.

πŸš€ Aerospace DNA

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"β€”the vibration that causes razor burn. Even at this highly aggressive setting, the blade is clamped rigid, ensuring a clean cut without the drama.

Why Invest in Aerospace Aluminum?

  • Don't Spend, Invest: Stop renting your shave from subscription clubs. This razor is engineered to last a lifetime.
  • Cost Savings: Uses standard double-edge blades that cost roughly $0.15 each. The average user saves the cost of the razor within the first year of ownership.
  • Environmental Impact: Over 2 Billion plastic cartridges hit landfills annually. This razor is 100% plastic-free and fully recyclable.
πŸ’‘ Pro Tip: Blade Selection Matters
Because this razor is highly aggressive, we recommend pairing it with a smooth, forgiving blade. Add the 100-Pack of RK Stainless Blades to your cart for optimal performance.

Expert FAQ

Will I cut myself?

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.

Is this good for head shaving?

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.

What blades should I use?

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.
