Plenty of room

Mine looked like that before I changed tack.

Been away and had the week from hell. So this was nice to come home to this morning.

Sorry to hear about your week. I hope the shave brought you a quarter hour of calm Jon. Nice setup. I've got a SOC in cherry and they're a nice brush. The Taj looks cool.

Still a little cold out of the box, but I already detect a beautiful aquatic here.

The Stando Rod arrived yesterday from @Jfett without any expectations it would be just as good as it is! One shave in and it’s already on my favourite list, and given a few more runs may even hit no. 2 on my AC list potentially overtaking the Vector and may hit the one spot! It’s amazing!

You are planning next week's shaves and then the postie arrives

In the hand this razor is just WOW!
Quality & craftsmanship just ooze from it as soon as you unwrap the package.
All bets are off for next week, I just have to give it a run out.

I’m intrigued to know how it compares to the blutt 86 tone. Very intrigued

Hi J,
I will be giving the razor single pass runs next week to get a feel for it and will run it alongside the Blutt .86 as well as some others.
I will "try" to give you a comparison - Not my Forte, i just seem to get along with most razors these days.
In fact the only negative i have had from shaving was with Polsilvers, my Nemesis. Maybe i should give those another spin now i have better technique and understanding of my Fizzog.

Enjoy the rest of your day Bud.

I have both, for me Athena is little more efficient, both razors in my TOP

My blutt 86 in my opinion being as bold to say. The best DE on the planet
