GREAT NEWS!!

I'm surprised that his prices have stayed the same and tariffs are covered.

A very good shave this morning with the Athena. However, the Feather blade on its 3rd shave, I felt the slightest of tugging after the first WTG pass was nearly done. Not uncomfortable or harsh but, it wasn’t as smooth as the first two shaves. I completed the shave nonetheless without a single incident as the Ethos soap laid down some excellent lather & protection. The splash was slightly a bit more bracing but, not over the top. Subdued in a few minutes as the ingredients in the splash really does help with irritation and soothes with the best of them. Mission accomplished. Though the blade finished the shave, it will be removed and I’ll run a couple other blades in the Athena to get a more thorough feel for how it works with those different blades and just simply paint a better & clearer picture on how this razor performs for me.

I only had three shaves with my new Titanium Athena, but I´m struggling to love it.

I have sensitive skin and my beard grows in various directions. Not much coarse. Tends to lie flat.

My actual favourite razor remains the Blackbird Titanium Lite for daily shaves (and Standard plate for more days growth).

I tried the Athena with two blades that are great in other razors for me, Treet Platinum and Personna GEM.

Not bad shaves at all, but I can´t say I am loving it. And I feel that is easier to get some small nicks. Also, I feel like it is scrapping my skin a bit.

Not sure if it is a pilot error or what...
