Comparison shave #3
Pre - Sainsbury's Luxury Soap, Bergamot & Nectarine
Brush - AP400B Slim Brass 22mm Silvertip Synth
Soap - Tabac
Razor - Blutt BR-1 - 0.86 - Athena
Blade - Wizamet Super Iridium - Med prep
Post - Cold water Rinse
Balm - Vintage Tabac
A/S - Tabac EDC
Today the Blutt is up against the Athena.
Tabac is up there for a shave soap for me, everything i need. Today the AP Brass whipped up a lovely lather, this little brush is working fine now with the reset knot.
I left it a bit later for my shave today as yesterdays shave had longevity on both sides.
I lathered up and used the Athena on the Right and the Blutt on the left.
I completed a WTG pass with both razors, the Blutt seemed to have a tiny bit of blade feel compared to none on the Athena, both razors delivered a very smooth 1st pass.
I completed the ATG pass with both razors and again the only difference i could feel was that tiny bit of edge on the Blutt, both dealing with the stubble admirably, both easily efficient enough for my medium stubble. I do not know how they would fare with a heavier growth.
Finishing with a little touch up on the neck whirlpools for an easy, very comfortable BBS.
I have a bit more experience with the Blutt and it was fitted with a new Wiza - a great combo for me.
Again it is a draw. I will have to run some other blades through the Athena, however, they both are very enjoyable razors for me.
A fine post shave routine, i thought the Vintage Tabac balm would have been done today so had a new tube on standby, there is probably 1 more application left. A nice splash of the Eau De Cologne to finish a very enjoyable bit of sink time.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
