First of all, big thanks going out to @Crossan for lending me his beautiful razor, it is very much appreciated.
The shave, I knocked up a really good lather from the MWF, greatly helped my my Zenith boar, it quickly scourers off enough soap for me to build enough lather for three passes and a touch up.
I put a Bolzano superinox blade into the Athena having had great results with them in other razors.
The shave was close and very smooth, so this razor is right in my wheel house!
I will get to tell you more about the razor the more I use it, I don't always shave every day but this razor gives me the confidence to do so without any skin problems.
I was left with super smooth skin and no cuts or raw patches and my test with an alum block confirmed my feelings, hardly any sting, that's good enough for me!
After the ASB had dried I gave myself a good splash of Old Spice, clean shaven and smelling great!
The performance of this razor matched it's fantastic looks, it's a lovely razor to look at and also to use.
Until the next time,
Paul.
