Part of their more elite collection in the expense of the materials used, the Mühle R85SR Sophist is a classic 3-piece safety with a handle made African Blackwood. African Blackwood's really a family of woods with similar traits; dark, of course, but also rather hard. The hue will vary a bit from light to dark as this is a naturally-variating material (as with other horn-based products, we'll soon be showing individual stock). Mühle razors as a family have the very finest chrome plating on the market, and the R85SR's certainly no exception. All of the Mühle 3-piece straight cut razors we sell share the same wonderful head. In particular, the level of smoothness upon the comb guard and the top of the head are beyond reproach, and many, many users literally claim they can feel this difference upon their face during the shave. The Sophist's tapered conical handle's ~0.7" (17mm) at its thickest, with a 4.75" (121mm) overall length and in this case a weight of 2.3 oz (65 g). It fits well in stands grabbing the neck of a razor, such as Mühle's RHM8, but also works well in the Mühle RHM3. This is a 3-piece razor, so changing the blade's marginally more involved but still quite easy. Comes in a gift box and is delivered with a Derby blade. |
