Second day Muehle R41
Yesterday I tested this beauty with Red Personna.
Today hard-core-test with Feather.
You should be highly concentrated. You need no pressure. This machine works without pressure.
Thanks to the CEO of Muehle factory how gave me the chance to be the first tester.
Volle Kante...Feather
Tag 2 Test Muehle R41
Gestern Red Personna- heute Feather
Mit der Feather im neuen R41 erreiche ich persönlich noch eine sanftere Rasur.
Achtung, bitte nicht zu viel Druck ausüben! Am Anfang wirklich das Eigengewicht des "Arbeitsgerätes" nutzen.
Die Seife wird prima transportiert. Genau so hatte ich mir das auch vorgestellt. Ein experimentieren mit Anstellwinkeln ist unnötig.
Der Mühle packt zu. Keine Hautirritationen, kein Rasurbrand, kein cut. Man sollte aber wirklich voll konzentriert arbeiten.
Angst braucht niemand zu haben.
Reife Leistung- ein erneuter Dank an die Firma Mühle. Der R41 ist "edel"!

This was probably my 2nd or 3rd shave with this one, and now I'm starting to think I can get it a little sharper. Got 3 on the honing pile now, better find some honing time soon.
Still, 2 passes and a DFS.
As always there have been some beautiful razors on display today, thank you boys.
Enjoy the weekend

Feather Midnight Wood AC RG, Light blade
Durance brush
Vitos shave cream
Floid Suave locion
YSL Kouros (old formulation)
Back in Athens, Greece for a week, and what a surprise shave that was...
Two easy and smooth passes with the Feather Artist Club, the brush making an excellent face lather with the Vitos. Really impressed with the Feather albeit the 'Light' Pro blade.
