Finally got my R41 in the mail and tried it on a couple days growth, which is very unusual since I shave twice a day now. The first pass wasn't the smoothest as you can imagine due to the two days growth and I've definitely found smoother first passes in these situations from my slants. It was a bloodless first pass and I didn't find it any more difficult to handle than my Rapira Platinum Lux, or adjustable on high (Progress and Slim) so I would say the highly aggressive title is earned but nothing to be feared.
So I was wondering if this razor was really as good as it was billed when I started the second pass and this is where the R41 really proved its worth! The second pass was very smooth and left me with a nearly BBS shave all over and BBS on the cheeks so I was certainly impressed and felt that it earned a spot in my regular rotation. I'm going to test out my Rapira again and see how they compare but I'm very pleased in the performance I've seen!
