Mühle Companion vs Mühle R89

Stubbles stubbles stubbles. Yes, tried several new blades, but that didn’t help. I’d suspect either bad design, poor manufacturing or both.

I started with the Trac II and used various cartridge razors since. About 20 years ago I started shaving my head.

I bought this as I wanted the grippiest handle, so it was either this or the EJ barleycorn (?). Regarding the handle, if my hands are soapy, it is slippery despite the pattern (I suspect that any razor would be with enough soap)
