Oh I like the SS version but the Special edition Titanium is next level.That it is. The SS version didn't flip my switch but the Ti is excellent!

Yeah, rub it in !Oh I like the SS version but the Special edition Titanium is next level.
The term "Scalloped Bar" was coined for it.Are all R41's open comb? Sort of a ignorant question.... I looked at the Muhle website... it appears that way...
I haven't seen one. But doesn't the handle have less of an impact on the performance, relatively speaking, than the head? My understanding is that the 2011 and 2013 baseplates are the same and what changed was the top cap.Has anyone done a comparison of 2011 and 2013 Classic handles as opposed to the head?
There is such little change that I’m sure the handle will make zero difference unless it’s got more grip and I don’t think it does. Appearance might differ though?I haven't seen one.

How would you rate the silver star in the R41 Jack? At least two shaves I see.

I ditched the SS version because the shaves with it were rather rough. The London Edition Ti that I have performs like the zamak versions i.e. superbly. It looks bloody gorgeous toohey so how do you find guys find the SS and titanium muhle r41 compared to the standard one?
btw just curious which muhle r41 do you have?
with some of your lots shvaing dens i assume someones got all three? lool
I suspect Muhle refined their machining as they went because some of the initial user feedback was rather underwhelming (sharp teeth, rough shave) but user feedback improved noticeably as time went by.I have the stainless steel and the cast metal version. Unlike @Trollky I like the stainless steel one a tiny bit better because of the extra weight, but the cast metal version is great also.
