MÜHLE Traditional Safety Razor (No Blades Included) (Chrome - Open Comb)

Product Information

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 The Muhle R41 comes in three designs to meet the shave needs of consumers. There is a two-piece Twist design, a 3-piece Grande, and a 3-piece Traditional/conventional design. Now if you like the length of the 3-piece traditional but want a little more heft, then you should consider the 3-piece Grande. It's only slightly longer than the traditional 3-piece at 3.8 inches long, but it has 0.6 more ounces in weight for a total weight of 2.8 ounces. We prefer that extra weight. 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. If you prefer the 3 piece design, then get the Traditional or the Grande. But if you prefer the 2 piece design, then go with the Twist. Not for newbies

Durability and Maintenance (4.8) This rare material is not a wood species in its own right, but comes from wood that sank into bogs many centuries ago and has undergone various processes of change in the meantime. This preserves the wood naturally and lastingly. An expressive, dark color develops due to the tannins in the bog.A real investment piece, the R226SR supersedes the need for single-use plastic. Growing concern in the effects of disposable plastic makes the R226SR a great choice for the environmentally conscious, reducing both unnecessary plastic waste and unwelcome environmental impacts, without compromising on precision.

One thing you can do is use a mild blade in the beginning instead of a feather blade until you get used to the aggressiveness. What Are People Saying About the R41 Twist?
