    Even though it's incredibly light at no time are you tempted to apply pressure with this great little razor.
    It also made me contemplate the modern concept that for a razor to be durable it must be made from steel, titanium or a remnant from a spaceship crash in area 51.
    An aluminium razor from the 1950s seems to pooh-pooh this sales pitch.
    Anyway I digress, this was a very enjoyable shave which left me as smooth as the flight path of Alan Shepard's golf ball.
    Enjoy your Sunday's.

    I haven't given the 41c much use recently, and I'm at a loss as to why.
    It dispels the myth that OCs are inherently aggressive and if anyone is looking for a road into OCs I'd highly recommend it.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    just bought these two razors. Mhule R41 and Mercur 41C. i usual use straights but when you are in a hurry a DB is a better chose. tested the R41 this morning,and had a very close and comfortable shave. testing 41C tomorrow. going to put the 41C head on my Mercur travel razor.

    As others have said the finish on this razor isn't great, lots of burring between the teeth on the underside of the baseplate.
    Definitely not a £70 razor, though I understand you can pick them up for £20 on eBay.
    The blade aligns up evenly and is held securely and the shave was pretty efficient and smooth but my skin feels slightly uncomfortable.
    I suspect this is due to the very heavy (3 5/8oz) handle and I'll try it with a different one next time.
    The Pashana aftershave is really growing on me, the very old school scent is like comfort food for the olfactory receptors.
    Have a great Sunday.
