Used my R41 head on the Sabi handle today. I really like this handle, and it seems to fit all my three piece razors. The last couple of shaves I have used some relativly mild razors and the shaves have been very comfortable and easy. The R41 is a different beast. I have no issues using it, but you really feel the sharp blade on the skin and you have to consentrate. When I do I end up with an amazingly close shave though. Alum block and Bulldog ASB took care of the little irritation there was and I'm really happy.
