Made in Stützengrün in Germany's Erz Mountains, the Mühle R41 is a classic safety razor, with an open comb. Mühle, founded by Otto Johannes Müller on returning from the war in 1945, has built an international reputation for precison-crafted shaving tools. The safety razor with open tooth comb was developed specially for practised wet shavers. Due to the principle of its construction, which features a special blade angle, the model allows a vigorous, very direct shaving technique. As on safety razors with closed combs, the blade is held in place by the curvature of the cap. The combination of open tooth comb and a gap behind the foam edge ensures that the edge is kept free of stubble and residues. This innovative design also makes subsequent cleaning easier. Unlike many modern blade systems, the R89 foregoes plastic mechanisms. Blades are easily replaced by unscrewing the head of the Safety Razor. Dimensions: 41 mm x 94 mm. To use, insert a sharp blade into the razor. After applying a pre-shave treatment and your shaving soap, cream or gel to your face, warm the safety razor in warm water and begin to shave with the razor at around a 30° angle to your face. It is recommended that you shave twice with the grain and once against the grain. Use a light touch and shave in short 30-35mm strokes. Be sure to regularly swish the blade in warm water between passes.
