Thread: Anyone try the Muhle R89?

It's a bit more expensive than similar safety razors but I've tried a few other Muhle products and was very pleased, which is why I'm thinking about spending a bit more for the good looking R89. Anyone have experience with it?

I should be able to tell you in a couple of days... I just bought one off of somebody here on the forum, and it should be arriving tomorrow.

I can tell you from the pictures that it looks damn sexy

The R89 is a well regarded DE, Muhle makes top notch stuff. I have the R41, a very aggressive model, yet a fantastic shaver used right.

eflatminor,

The Muhle heads are excellent; I have a Muhle R109 & R41 and they are very, very nice DE razors

Have fun !

Best regards

I used to have a Mühle R89 and it was one the best razors I’ve had so far. Just got the old R41 (open comb) and am thinking of getting myself the R89 again as well, once the Pils is gone…

Hello, eflatminor,
The Muhle R89 is a superb razor. The workmanship and the shave will please you.

I just got it. It is identical head to my Edwin Jagger which is considered one of the smoothest shavers out there. It performs the same with the only difference being it has a slightly nicer handle but at double the price. And actually the handle may not really be any 'better' it is just different.
