Anyone have experience with the Vivo, Rytmo, and Liscio razors from Muhle? I found one or two posts mentioning them but very little real information or experience on how they actually compare to the standard style of razors.

I was originally looking at an r89 or 2013 r41 as my first DE razor but since these are roughly the same price and have a more clean/modern look they caught my attention. Pending confirmation from a vendor I am assuming that the open/closed heads are the same as the r89 and 2013 r41 heads so that is simple enough but what does everyone think about the handles?
Are they more or less comfortable or would they require a different technique or skill to use effectively? Do you think the weight balance or other aspects of the razors could make them a better or worse choice than the more common designs? As an additional comparison, would the more tapered handle in the Modern->Stylo/Kosmo lines be better or worse for anyone?
Also, how do you think they would do in a common stand like the https://www.muehle-shaving.com/shop/accessories/holders/1/razor_and_brush_stand/6/25/S_9711? Part of the appeal of these razors is that they look nice enough to leave out but if they get scratched or don't fit into the stand then it isn't really a benefit anymore (and unfortunately the line-specific stands designed to hold them cost more than the razor and brush combined!)
