Dear all, today I thought I would give my 2013 rose gold R41 a try, after two years of inactivity, as I remember in my novice days it used to cut me badly every time I used it. Shower, proraso red and a personna on its second outing, gave me a BBs in two and corrections. I used no pressure, just let the head do its job and admirably it succeeded. No cuts, no weepers, no irritation. I do like it now and I intend to put it on the rotation. I find it as aggressive as my Gillette old only not as smooth. It seems I have come a long way since my first attempts at DE shaving.
Bravo, good job. I myself never really had success with any Mühle DE because I found them too aggressive.
that's awesome. it took me a little time to get my technique down but now that i have, Muhle safety razors are my favorite by far
I have an R41 in my rotation and while it delivers an excellent shave it's not among my favorites, I find it not as smooth as other aggressive razors, and I find the head clogs more easily than any other razor I own which I find annoying. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
I own this razor too and I love it, I find it very efficient. Kudos on getting a BBS with only two passes and clean up that's hard to do. I gave up on BBS shaves, my skin is too sensitive and it always irritates my neck something fierce. I'm good with a DFS any day of the week. Glad to hear more props for R41, it's definitely not a razor for the beginning de shaver but once your technique is spot on it's an amazing piece of equipment that truly delivers time and time again for me.
