Safety Razor Open Comb Traditional R 101

Safety razor from MUHLE, open comb, handle made of high quality resin - classic blade.

The Material - High-grade Resin:

High-grade resin is a high-quality synthetic material, the surface of which is processed and refined separately. The material is ideal for exclusive accessories and writing implements because it facilitates a broad spectrum of modern and classical designs in many attractive colours. To begin with, the aesthetic basic shapes for brush and razor handles are turned out of solid rods. Then each individual work piece is polished in several passes to give the surface its special gleam. This processing method lends the models a pleasant feel and secures their beauty for many years to come.

Razorhead - Open Comb:

Open comb safety razors require a little more care and respect in the beginning. After a short period of familiarization, and guidance from a steady hand, it gives you a very effective long-lasting shave. This type of razor is designed especially for those who love wet, wet shaving. Due to their special construction, which creates a special angle on the blade, such a model allows an energetic, very direct shave. The combination of the open comb razor and blade ensures stability and accuracy. The result depends on the length of the generations and their density. When you start shaving, run the razor along the skin without applying pressure. In the second move, you do it from the opposite direction.

Instructions for use:

Shaving with a safety razor requires a little practice. The skin also needs some time to grow accustomed to the shave. Getting started will be easier if you follow these instructions: Moisten the beard area, preferably with warm water, and lather it thoroughly with a brush. The longer you lather the beard, the more easily and gently the hairs can be cut. If possible, use a highly effective moisturising shaving cream or soap as this will allow the blade to slide over the skin more easily. Make sure that the shaving head and handle are firmly attached to each other, but only tighten the screw to the extent that it can be unscrewed without too much effort. This ensures that the blade rests at the correct angle. Now begin with the shave. Hold the safety razor at an obtuse angle (approx. 30°) to the skin. Start with the cheeks and allow the razor to slide over the skin, applying gentle pressure. Always shave in the direction of the beard growth (with the grain). When shaving the neck, stretch the skin tight with your free hand. Do not be discouraged by small cuts or grazes. Once you have familiarised yourself with the razor, they will rarely occur.
