iKon head - ShaveCraft vs B1 OSS vs Open Comb Deluxe vs Short Comb

Hey there,

as my previous post already pointed out -> I am looking for an open comb saftety razor and kind of settled for iKon.
Now there are various models that I can choose from and I wonder what the exact differences are?

Open Comb Deluxe vs Short Comb:
The only difference is the B1 coating on the "Deluxe".. but everything else seems to be the same?

ShaveCraft vs B1 OSS:
The OSS has a "safety bar" on one side where the ShaveCraft seems to be more like my closed comb DE98. I wonder what the differences between safety bar and closed comb are ?

And then in general I wonder if I should get an iKon with just 2x open comb sides or with 1x open comb and 1x closed comb?
Will I ever really need the closed comb ?

Also: Should I go for B1 coating or just simple stainless steel? I am afraid that the B1 coating will come off in a few years. The B1 coating won't really give me any advantages anyway ?

Thanks !
