DS Cosmetics is also selling Razorock clones which make me thing that they are just copying successful designs.
Muhle is launching a LE R41 Stainless Steel

Looking forward to your review!
It's got to be done
The race is onWhy did you hesitate for so long?
My order already has been shipped and might be delivered on Monday...
Um, if they did this for the R89 I'd probably sell my collection....
Tempted.Great looking!
It's about time, surprised they didn't do this long ago.
I have used and will still use the r 41 muhle a lot, I also own the DSC Z0 ....
In my opinion, the Z0 is more aggressive and less comfortable to use ... But it's a bit more effective .....
The DSC I have is even and simple, symmetrical in construction, not smiling, the geometry of the head seems to be very good ...
It probably depends on how you can buy it, because it can be different ..

My same feelings. I use the R41 head on a RR Barber Pole handle with great satisfaction. €130 for the SS head is a bit steep for my shallow pockets. Also 130 grams is a little too heavy for my tastes, I favor razor weights in the 70g-80g range and the zamak R41 + RR handle is already 103g.
Just saying... The weight of the R41 GS is 113g.
I saw this razor release earlier in the day so before buying, I pulled out the R41 with tortoiseshell handle and had an amazing shave. Needless to say I am now down $166 in my bank account.
You are right... I don't know why 130 was a number impressed in my memory...
maybe I know... the price
It does not compute.
A replacement R41 head costs under $20. You could buy three or four heads and have a lifetime supply for much less than the cost of one stainless steel version.
Mail call!
I received my order way ahead of schedule. Kudos to Mühle Germany and DHL Germany for shipping my order within less than 20 hours...
DISCLAIMER: Attached are my unboxing pics taken with a mobile cam only. The razor has not been cleaned properly prior to taking the pictures so what you might see are some dust spots on the head... but the finish is flawless!
Initial impression:
Everything looks visually fine.
The razor appears to have an excellent balance in terms of the head weight and handle weight. It feels sturdy but not bulky. Imho the look and feel is a clear improvement in comparision to the regular R41 Grande/Twist.
I am a bit disappointed regarding the razor's box. I had expected to see a non standard box (as Mühle did with the Rocca) but the razor arrived in Mühle's standard card box. I mean, we are talking about Mühle's flagship razor...
However, what I found in the box looks very promising to my eyes. The blade gets clamped down absolutely fine without any remaining gap. There is no noticeable "blade smile".
The debut shave will take place later today.
