Muhle R89 DE Safety Razor in Rose Gold

First off I’d like to say thanks to everyone at shave lounge for the help and the fast delivery.

The R89 Rose Gold razor is stunning to hold and to look at, it’s completely flawless and a perfect weight, I was a bit concerned as to the length before buying but I needn’t have worried, the grip on the handle is wonderful and seems slightly “tacky” and the shave is perfect, I am used to safety razors having used them for many years but only really cheap ones, and this razor is many magnitudes better, it’s awesome, go on treat yourself you wont regret it.

There was however one downside and that was the Muhle blade that comes with it, it’s rubbish there’s no feel at all when you’re shaving and it isn’t particularly sharp either, I don’t know if that was a one off but looking at other reviews for those blades I don’t think so!, my advice don’t use it try your normal blades, or order a sample pack from the shave lounge, you may find something you like, I did.

A bit of luxury every day.
The Muhle R89 is a lovely comfortable razor. It doesn’t give as close a shave as my Merkur Futur but for “in between days” when you want a decent shave quickly and comfortably it’s brilliant. The rose gold finish is really lovely too – a bit different from the usual polished chrome but not too bling. Think at some point I’ll be heading back to shave lounge to buy the closer-shaving open Muhle head to try out with this handle.

Great razor and service. The rose gold is stunning in person.

Nice product, great customer service and fast delivery 🙂
