  1. Default WTT: Muhle R41 for Merkur Slant Bar

    I have shaved with the R41 3 times. It's just not for me. I can't take it.

    I'd like to try a Slant Bar. Good condition, please.

    Straight up trade. You send me yours, I'll send you mine.

    Probably like me, finds it too aggressive and the angle is too sharp!

    Me, too. I've used both extensively. Can't shave with an R41 without crippling razor burn. Absolutely love the Merkur slant. Very comfortable, super close shave. I'm guessing it has something to do with skin sensitivity, because lots of folks here swear by the Muhle.
    Winning is like shaving—you do it every day or you wind up looking like a bum.

    I've been down this exact road. You're gonna love the slant. I love mine. I also got a Fatip, and I love it even more.

    My pleasure trading with you too Steve. Thanks for the slant and thanks for what you sacrifice for us. I hope you like the R41 more than I did. I already love the slant.

    Thanks again,

    Alex
