What does “open comb” mean?
The fact that there is a gap between the teeth of the comb allows more lather to remain on the face since it goes through the spaces. As a result, you will get a closer shave. This option is not recommended for daily use or for people with sensitive skin.
This is an example of an open comb:
This is an example of a closed comb:
Notice that in close combs, there is a bar that joins the teeth of the comb. This offers more protection and it is recommended for daily shaving. Most Double Edge Safety Razors are closed comb.

Is it aggressive?
This razor is very aggressive and it is not recommended for beginners. Once you get the grip of it you will enjoy a very clean shave.
Apart from the type of comb, there are other aspects that will define how aggressive a razor is: the blade gap, the amount of blade exposed, the cutting angle and the blade.
