I would go to The English Shaving Company site, and look under Edwin Jagger safety razors. There are four DE89s that I see with chrome handles - one plain, one line patterned, one barley corn patterned and one (discontinued I believe) with an octagonal handle. What confuses me on razorbladesandmore is the reference to a new head for 2011. Thought that the current (?) head came out over a year ago.

Edit: Just got back from the doctor for annual physical. Blew every question on "how long ago did you..."! Maybe I haven't had my EJ89L as long as I thought. At any rate, new for 2011 or not, this appears to be the latest head on the EJ razors.

Here are all the DE89 Models in the wiki with some pics. The DE89 has a smooth chrome handle and the DE8911 is available in smooth chrome and octagonal chrome. Per WCS the 8911 is lighter and is weighted closer to the head.

I own a DE89L, which I like. I'd get the barley chrome if I was buying today.
