About this deal

It doesn’t get much better than this: Mühle Classic stand (Razor and Brush) – Please keep in mind if you have a brush already – this stand will only fit up to 25mm knot size. The one downside is the handle could have a little more weight. This would really help the razor do its job in one pass. Unlike modern blade systems, the R41TWIST foregoes plastic mechanisms. Growing concern in the effects of disposable plastic makes the R41TWIST a great choice for the environmentally conscious, reducing both plastic waste and unwelcome environmental impacts, without compromising on precision.

The surface structure of the handle is a modern interpretation of the knurl on the handle of a classic safety razor. The honeycomb-like structure is very tactile, offering excellent grip. MeasuresI first tried a shave using the R41 with my bog-standard, middle-of-the-road blade, an “Israeli Personna” (AKA Crystal brand), a blade that I use quite often. I found the razor still very aggressive and I had to be careful of pressure and angle, but I was able to go against the grain without blood (though I did have a small patch of redness in the right side of my chin). Moisten the beard area, preferably with warm water, and lather it thoroughly with a brush. The longer you lather the beard, the more easily and gently the hairs can be cut. If possible, use a highly effective moisturizing shaving cream or soap as this will allow the blade to slide over the skin more easily. Make sure that the shaving head and handle are firmly attached to each other, but only tighten the screw to the extent that it can be unscrewed without too much effort. A real investment piece, the R55SR supersedes the need for single-use plastic. Growing concern in the effects of disposable plastic makes the R55SR a great choice for the environmentally conscious, reducing both unnecessary plastic waste and unwelcome environmental impacts, without compromising on precision. It was causing too many problems even to expert wet shavers who are skilled in the art. But even with this fact, when the new design was introduced to the market, some were still skeptical and afraid to give it a try. Another option would be a slant razor, or you can opt for an “open comb” razor like this one from Muhle called the R41. A hybrid design

They use the exact same open tooth aggressive comb on all the variations of the R41 so if anything, the added weight should just improve the performance of the razor. Who Is The Grande Good For?

Who Is The R41 Twist Good For?

Although a relatively new Series from MÜHLE, ROCCA's heritage is still very evident. The design of this range is a further development of classic MÜHLE models; the name ROCCA (from the Italian for castle or fort) refers to the very best materials that will last a lifetime and beyond. The ROCCA razor For generations, the safety razor has been regarded as a stylish classic which can even shave edges with precision. For many, it is the razor par excellence. Its styling is ideally suited to the design of the MÜHLE products. The Twist comes with a protruded handle that provides slightly more grip in the event your hand slips down to the very last bit of the handle. Aggressiveness While it exposes less of the blade than the older R41, a lot of folks in the wet shaving community call this the most aggressive safety razor in the market. Mow down a 4-day growth in fewer passes

There are days that you don’t feel like doing a three to four pass shave and fully enjoy the Zen that comes from shaving. The hexagonal profile of each of these products combines contemporary design with traditional, and thoroughly practical, elements to ensure ergonomics, grip and functionality. A design approach for which Mark Braun has already won many awards. This is a well-balanced razor; the longer handle will be great for those of you with larger hands but the moderate weight will help you maneuver the razor over your skin. Those that time to prep their face with a shaving brush, maybe even a nice pre-shave oil and definitely a quality shaving soap or cream.When looking at the Muhle R41 razor, it’s essential to consider the user experience and performance. The razor’s design, handle, and weight all contribute to its overall performance, which is a key factor in determining if the razor is right for you. First of all, you should know that there are actually three different R41 models available to buy: a three-piece traditional, a 3-piece “Grande” and a 2-piece twist. All three models have nearly identical razorheads, but they each have different handles with varying dimensions and qualities.

This razor features a handy twist function that releases the cap with a simple twist of the small wheel at the end of the handle. The bottom plate of the head remains firmly attached to the handle, whilst the top plate will become detached. This allows used blades to be removed safely and replaced with new ones and makes the cleaning process easier The 3-piece is typically our preference, but we really like the R41 2-piece twist. It is also very durable and easy to maintain. Twist-to-open safety razors have more mechanical parts that can stress or strain though. With the R41, the knob at the bottom twists to open the razorhead. With a focus on precision engineering, their razors provide a close and comfortable shave, while their brushes create a rich and luxurious lather. The brand's skincare essentials are formulated to nourish and protect the skin, ensuring a refreshing and revitalizing grooming experience. Their products are trusted by gentlemen around the globe who appreciate the art of a well-executed shave and the timeless elegance that Mühle embodies. The traditional 3-piece model is about 3.7 inches from to to bottom and weighs around 2.2 ounces. The weight is definitely on the lighter side for a safety razor, but it still feels like a solid razor unlike some cheaper plastic razors that are actually around the same weight. If you want a sleek razor that won’t be difficult to maneuver, the 3-piece traditional is an excellent option.A real investment piece, the R44SR supersedes the need for single-use plastic. Growing concern in the effects of disposable plastic makes the R44SR a great choice for the environmentally conscious, reducing both unnecessary plastic waste and unwelcome environmental impacts, without compromising on precision. The aggressiveness makes this unsuitable for any beginner but for experienced wet shavers who want something to tame their rough 5-day beard growth. Length On shaving forums, the likes of ShaveNook.com, a lot of wet shavers share their experience and have gone on record praising the safety razor design of the Muhle R41 saying that it can provide for a BBS close shave on beards and it shaves facial hairs that have a roughness of 5 days. Plentiful shapes and expressive silhouettes combine with the classic purist design that MÜHLE is renowned for. Proportions accentuate lavish materials, resulting in these eye-catching marvels; the crowning glory of the MÜHLE programme. The Material:
