With the right blade, the right prep and the right technique the R41 is a pussycat. It does however have a preference to tough whiskers and sharp blades. This, with a Fatip open comb have given the best results so far.
I have shimmed mine to improve upon blade chatter with bic blades. With the nacet it was better on that front. While I cannot say it is a daily driver, having rediscovered shaving in the last couple months, I am very satisfied with the results. My other current favorite, the fatip open comb has a different philosophy but I enjoy it too.
All this discussion is to be taken with a grain of salt. I am using a shimmed R41 and I also enjoy the Lord R6, which is a very mild razor. Once your technique is dialed in, you can pretty much get good results with anything.
