Geo, I went from using a terrible Gillette Fusion to a safety razor about 3 years ago when I found this channel. Bought a Muhle R89 with some Feather blades and Proraso products and couldn't be happier. My shave routine completely changed, my skin feels much fresher and smoother with a safety razor than those gimmicky razors with the 5 blades and aloe vera strip. Keep up the good work man, love these videos.

Thanks, Geo. Glad to catch this very recent video of yours comparing the two really well-known Mühle safety razors. I figured, at first, that it must be a rerun, but no. I have one question. It seems that the R41 is like "King of the Hill," when considering open-combs. I have several open-comb heads that I've purchased to get an idea of open-combs. I haven't purchased a Mühle open-comb. Is there any quality, attribute or aspect of its performance that sets it apart in such a way as to be superior, supreme or whatever? You've given a good demo and explanation of these two Mühle razors. Just wondering what you might say about the R41's status or rank among open-combs. Thanks again, Geo. Being from South Bend, IN (though in San Jose, CA now), I was glad to find out, recently in a video of yours or maybe in the video of you and Lynn Abrams, that you are a Chicago guy. Never wondered about where you were located, but figured it was someplace in the New England part of the U.S.

I love when you shave fully with the both edges before you clean it up. I know most DE razor can take all the half face with no problem 6:18 - 7:15 before clean the razor again. But ist only with the aggressive razors or all razors? When I see others don't do it like that, it annoys me and then I stop the video and scroll it. Greetings from Palestine!

Are the grips of any use? No. Can you raze without grip???

I love my R89 and copied counterparts. The R41 I don't have I'm an every day shaver. Medium beard thickness. I get burns with super aggressive razors. I have a few.

How long does a blade last
@valueink3 жыл бұрын
R41 for the first pass, R89 for the 2nd and 3rd. Or get a Parker Variant or Progress and adjust as needed.
