Hi all,
I originally posted a thread about my shaves and irritation with my EJDE89 which you can find on my profile page. I decided to try more aggressive razors first starting with the NEW LC which gave me much less irritation than my EJ and like very much. Then I jumped to the Mhule R41 and somehow came away with an almost BBS shave on my neck near my problem areas and almost no irritation! After reading all of the reviews of how dangerous the R41 is and that wet shavers should be cautious with this razor, I was very hesitant but I purchased it, threw it on a Maggard MR8 handle, popped in a GSB alongside some Stirling Exec. Man...and BOOM! Only a very slight sting from the good ol' alum block in one area I didn't pay close attention to (my fault). But I used the same exact technique with the R41 that I have used with my other razors and the results are night and day. I have heard other people call the R41 an anomaly and I am starting to think that they might be right.
