Lather was stellar actually amazing ! Unfortunately the scent is so light it is all but lost on me. I also got irritation all over my face from it and will need to pass this set on. Disappointed for sure after all the hype and delays. To clarify for those that only read what they wanted to in that thread. It's a broken record that he's a one man show etc etc etc. We all know that. But don't have basically a pre-order with a set shipping date (He's been at this long enough to know what he can and can't do) Even then if he was surprised by the sales he gave false ship dates 3 more times to me. At that point he knew how many orders he had and the situation since it was sold out already. Have a great day everyone !!

It's sharp and it cuts. I like it...

I haven’t shaved with a Vector in who knows how long. I’ve had them both in the as is finish & the polished version as well. I moved them on both in a couple of trades and to be quite honest, I regrettably feared that it was a bad move on my part. Not that the items I procured were of lesser value or weren’t capable shavers because there were and are capable shavers. But, the Vector is different and I just simply missed having one in my shave den. Well, I found one on the b/s/t a couple months back and have finally come around to strapping it up for a shave. Schick Proline in and just as how I exactly remembered this whisker removing samurai performed that time ago. Every bit as smooth & efficient of an operator that gives top tier results. Nimble, intuitive, precise and just so easy to use that a neophyte can get along with this razor in a few shaves. It’s incredibly good with Blackland quality to back it up.

It’s good to have an old friend back in the line up. On a side note, this Ethos Grooming Vetivert is an incredibly good product. This is strictly for Vetiver lovers in the range of Guerlain, Tom Ford & Murdoch that want that classy edge in masculinity while still offering an effervescence in the scent especially with the eau de parfum that brings a modern touch to the overall scent profile. A must try for Vetiver fans. Great shaves to all….

My experience and sentiments all around (excepting ProLine blade - AC blades highly personal) including Vetyvert.
