Sorry to give you the same razor twice in one week, but I wanted to try to smooth off the edge on this a tiny bit. I gave it 10 laps on the Chrome Ox balsa followed by 200 laps on the newspaper strop. Primitive but effective, the edge was noticeably smoother.
A lazy 2 pass shave left me feeling smooth and refreshed, a DFS.

Thanks for all the great posts and pics boys.

Razor:	Mühle R101 "Shark's Mouth"
Blade:	Shark Super stainless
Brush:	Semogue LE 2009
Lather:	Omega shaving soap with lanolin
Aftershave:	Osage Rub
Comments:	I didn't think about a DE shave today, but finally I've chosen the Mühle R101, lighter than the R41, better to use a razor as this because the weight it's not an advantage for such as agressive head. Because the agresiveness and the aspect of the comb, that seems the teeth of a shark, I called it "Shark's Mouth". More "romantic" than call it R101. Supermentholated shave because of the Omega soap and the Osage Rub, the fresher shave in Spain

Thanks Angel, I'm glad you like it, this razor has inspired tons of threads, from its official introduction here in SRP by eTom. I think this model is a new step in the safety razors, a new concept of DE razor use . What do you think?

Thanks for your kind words Paul. I bought my Japanese razors on eBay. I hunted them for a long time. ...but you can probably find on a web shops too.
