Re: Edwin Jagger DE.87
I've got an EJ DE87 (ivory) and the only reference to the weights of all the Jagger razors is on the Fendrihan website.
He posts the weight of the DE87 at 63g.

The metal handled version (DE89) is also stated as 63g.

I also have an Ivory handled Chatsworth. This weighs in at 65g.

However the metal handled Chatsworth weighs in at 110g.

My guess is that the shorter (DE89) metal handle is hollow and this accounts for the same weight as the shorter (DE87) solid ivory.
However the longer handled metal Chatsworth is solid and this explains the weight gain over the ivory Chatsworth.
I also think the R41 is a Merkur 25C head on a DE89 handle.
Confusing? :lol:
