Another great shave with the Athena this morning. I ended up with some post shave irritation after the last shave. A fresh blade, lighter pressure, and making sure to not over shave soap free areas completely fixed the issue.

I ordered mine in early Feb. Just received word that it is in the USA now. So another 2 weeks? Anxious to get her home

I must have gotten lucky. It sat in customs for a week or two then made it to me relatively quickly.

This handle needed some grip. Ended up putting the original back in the box

Have you been using the razor much? Thoughts on it after using for a while?

Mine got used for a few weeks. Then I started grabbing the Sailor again.

I’m getting along real well with this razor. Paired with a med prep I get 2 pass bbs shaves. I just got back from vaca and took down 5 days of growth with ease and no clogging issues. I prefer a sure grip for my quick daily shaves so the sailor only sees action on the weekends.

Picked up this tibam set off bst recently and it’s been a perfect pairing.

Valid points all. I think I will look to see if one of my spare Wolfman handles in mirror bronze would fit the Ares. I assume it would. Should look good too. Although I am not big on mix matching parts, that combo doesn't seem to trigger my retentive sphincter.

Thanks for the idea.

If anyone here decides to sell theirs, please get in touch with me.  I have a "Want To Buy" up on BS&T.  
I'm not on Facebook, so my chances of finding out when they drop is small, and I'm a long way from Greece.

He sells it on Etsy. Just sign up for notifications from the shop. The last drop was available for 3 days.
