R89 Traditional Double Edge Safety Razor – Closed Comb Mild Shaver for Men | Beginner-Friendly & Daily Use | Smooth Close Barbershop Shave

TLDR: excellent build quality, super smooth shave, beginner friendly. I think many can relate to the fact that at one point shaving becomes a boring mundane task that you can’t escape. I have been shaving everyday for over 18 years now. I have always used a 3 bladed or a 5 bladed modern day shaving razor. This is my first foray into old school safety razor and honestly I have started to enjoy my morning shaves again. The quality of the shave is extremely refreshing. No more razor bumps, no itchy patch. And I also think this is perfect for a beginner or someone who will jump ship from the modern day multi bladed razor. I always held back from buying myself a conventional safety razor because I was scared of cutting myself but boy was I missing out on this experience. I finally decided to go with the R89 and I am glad I made the right choice. Highly recommended.

R89 is a Super Star among double edge shaving razors. Best Razor i have ever purchased. Best products from Turab Marketing Ltd..... , Mumbai. Best investment a man can make for himself. Best razor for Indian youth. Five star.

In India this is around 5000 INR, but in the long term you save a lot of money since the blades are very cheap.

Very happy with the razor's performance on my sensitive skin! I used Muhle blade included in the package. No razor burns/bumps at all! It glides smoothly over the face. Highly prefer this over Bombay Shaving Company razor.

This is simply the fabulous. I've been using gillette cartridge-based razors all my life (since last 24 years) and this my first time with safety razors. After some basic research I zeroed in on the Muhle R89 and for all you guys confused on whether you should buy this or not - you can blindly go for it. I have had the smoothest gliding experience for the first time in my life and mind you, I've been shaving for more than 2 decades now. The blade I've used is the MÜHLE Fine Double Edge - and it's a match made in haven.

It is really a good product which Amazon selling.

Purchased this item after a lot of research. Gives you a very close shave without any nicks and cuts. Looks amazing! I am using this with Feather blades and am really really happy with the investment. German engineering which is reliable and top quality :)

Lousy shave

Un plaisir de se raser. Rapide et efficace.

Det här är en riktigt bra säkerhetshyvel för att lära sig att raka sig på det här sättet, och blir sen ett säkert alternativ att falla tillbaka på när man har bråttom. Förutom den här säkerhetshyveln är det bra om man investerar i en rakborste, rakblad, raktvål/kräm (behöver bättre glid än raklöddret på burk), alun-sten och aftershave balm. Kolla gärna på youtube. Det finns billiga alternativ. Kvalitén är väldigt bra, ingen rost eller dylikt även fast jag låter bladet sitta i tills det är slött, då rengör jag hyveln och byter blad. Jag har använt min R89 flitigt i ett och ett halvt år nu. Den går dock inte alls bra att raka huvudet med, om någon undrar. Bladet är för skyddat för att den ska fungera på huvudet, där kan jag rekommendera t.ex. Mühle Companion istället. Högsta betyg på den här hyveln, jag kan verkligen rekommendera den. Jag gillar grejer som håller.

Absolutely brilliant double edged razor. If you were wondering whether to change from cartridge razors to a double edged, then this is the one for you. Perfect for both beginners and experts, this gives a close comfortable shave. The razor is very well manufactured, with a good finish and well balanced. It is perfect in terms of closeness - not too aggressive and yet close enough, and importantly very comfortable. I've tried a few double edged razors, but this is my go-to razor most days. Some aggressive ones are fine with a few days growth, but this is perfect for daily use. There are many benefits of double edged razors over cartridges. They are much cheaper in the long run. They are also better for the skin as the way cartridge razors work is that they grab the hair with one blade which lifts it, and then the next blade cuts it below the surface of the skin - this means the hair has to push up through the skin when growing, which gives rise to irritation and/or spots. Double edged razors cut the top off, and leaves the skin in much better shape. Also, typically you do a maximum of 3 passes, as opposed to a cartridge with 5 blades which is effectively doing 5 passes, if not more. I mean seriously - 5 blades! Why stop there; why not 6 or 7 or more? Getting silly, and double edged razors were good enough for your ancestors, and importantly they work very well. Yes, there is a learning curve, but get on YouTube and watch a couple of the popular videos, and you will be shaving like a pro in a week. It also becomes a pleasurable experience and a great zen way to start the day. Go the whole experience and get yourself a shaving brush and some decent shaving soap. The aficionados will talk about badger or boar brushes, but it doesn't matter too much and I use a synthetic brush, which is easier to take of and lasts practically forever (make sure to rinse properly as leaving soap on it shortens the life). Shaving soaps - go for a soft cream with a nice fragrance (pick a popular one on Amazon), and you can't go too wrong. Again, much better for your skin than the aerosols/cans. Round it off with an alum block. Then you're all set and it will all last you a long time for a small upfront investment. And importantly, you will enjoy the shaving experience and your skin will thank you for it.

Good razor. I use the Astra blades and always have a great shave with it. I also have the Henson razor and this one is just as good. I get a close shave and I hardly ever get razor nicks, if I do it’s only from old acne scabs. The razor has very little blade feel and has a good weight to the handle. The look is very nice too! Definitely my new daily shaver! Don’t be afraid to buy this if you’re on the fence or worried you’ll cut yourself like I was. This is a great razor! Happy shaving!

Der MÜHLE TRADITIONAL Sicherheitsrasierer hat mich von Anfang an begeistert. Schon beim Auspacken merkt man die hohe Verarbeitungsqualität – alles wirkt edel, robust und sehr gut durchdacht. Der Rasierhobel liegt angenehm schwer in der Hand, was das Rasieren besonders kontrolliert und präzise macht. Ich war anfangs etwas skeptisch, ob ein klassischer Rasierhobel wirklich mit modernen Systemrasierern mithalten kann – aber ich wurde positiv überrascht. Die Rasur ist unglaublich gründlich und gleichzeitig sanft zur Haut. Dank des geschlossenen Kamms eignet sich der Rasierer auch sehr gut für Einsteiger oder für empfindliche Haut. Kein Ziepen, kein Brennen – einfach ein sauberes Ergebnis. Was mir besonders gefällt: Die Rasierklingen lassen sich einfach wechseln, und man spart im Vergleich zu Systemrasierern auf Dauer eine Menge Geld – ganz zu schweigen vom positiven Umweltaspekt.
