Have to agree. A very comfortable, but efficient daily driver...I have the R89 and RRGG .68 and .84. All are excellent. The .84 for the money is real value and a solid, shaver - smooth, efficient, nimble, low profile head, all SS and the Radio Knob handle is really ergonomic. Blade feel is a more muted than say the Rocca. An excellent buy for me...
I was going to buy a Merkur 34C but I want something that's not classed as an entry level shaver.
This I don't understand, the reason that the EJ 89 and the Merkur 34 so often get recommended to newbies is because they work well for the majority of people. It's not because they're somehow lesser razors, it's because you're likely to get good results with one.
If the EJ 89 was available in stainless steel it'd be my ideal razor.
The EJ 89 and Muhle R89 heads look identical to me.
Vintage Gillette slim.This shows my inexperience with safety razors. I was originally going to buy a M 34C but everywhere was sold out so I bought the Muhle R89 and that's what I have used for 5 odd years. I never needed anything else. I know that the M 34C is a great razor but is there anything out there that is considered a much better razor without breaking the bank.
