Thanks...

Given the similarities between the two handles, it's not hard to guess it's the head I am after.. Is this head available on any other models? Only in the pre-owned arena? Any other razor manufacturers use this head that you know if?

The only manufacturers that I can see that look like they use the old Muhle head is: plz take a look

I do believe this is the old R41.

That is the Old R89. This is the original R41

Same heads different handles but the old R41 was nickle plated.
