UPDATE - I Have a Muhle R41 Coming

[gillettedeguy]

I know, I said this before. But I'm very excited. I'm getting my own Muhle R41 razor soon. I got an offer from @Korbz. But first, he has to get it from Mark1966, then he will send it to me. I'm very, very excited yet scared. Wish me luck! I know some people don't find the razor to be a big deal but I can't imagine doing it wrong for the first time :-

 

[gillettedeguy]

Korbz sent me a message saying he will send it to me ONLY IF he does not use it much.

They are quite a cheap razor, a little under $60 posted iirc-
May be worth just buying one bud

As I said in the other thread mate, if it's not going to get use I would throw it your way. Looking at it though, if you're in the US, shipping would cost more than buying one over there. You can pick up the head only for $26 USD.

Oh wow yeah just saw that you are in the US-
It would be too costly to post it to you from Australia dude, just buy one locally- they are cheap AF there.

 

[gillettedeguy]

I understand. I just got my brother to do me a favor and order one for me from Amazon just for $50. Sorry I've been very annoying about it.

 

[gillettedeguy]

Alright guys, it's official. My older brother ordered me my own Muhle R41 from the internet. It's arriving Sunday. I'll let yall know when it arrives. Cheers

@gillettedeguy great to hear. Even more impressive is Sunday delivery.

Also you don't need to start a new thread each time. You've created 5 threads in a week all about aquiring an R41. If other people did the same we'd have 100 threads about the Karve razor. @Mark1966 or @Monsta_AU is it possible to merge them?

Sorry, my internet is acting crazy. I tried to delete the second one when I realized there were two. Sorry.

Sorry for the late response. 3 piece.

[Ferret619]

Lucky Americans with your fast shipping and Sunday delivery..

 

[Ferret619]

So you have had it for hours.. what do you think?

It's a pretty great razor, in my opinion. I could for sure feel the aggressiveness of it. It looks great too. My opinion, of course

Have you used a Gillette Old type?
Personally I think the R41 is right around there- just much heavier

Yep. I use my 1917 Gillette old type single ring the most than my other two Gillette open combs. Me personally I feel the R41 is just a bit more aggressive.

@gillettedeguy if you want to go above the R41 aggressive rate get yourself an iKon Tech FYI below
