Athena isn’t in the conversation.
I am glad I passed on this razor.

Currently I do not.@Dtownvino, do you have any idea when Andy will open his waiting list up for the next batch of TI DB?
Glad you passed on which razor, the Athena or the Ti Dback?I am glad I passed on this razor.
Glad you are enjoying your new shiney but not surprised the Ti Blackbird delivers a longer BBS, I love that I don't get the initial 5 O'Clock shdow until 24hrs+ later!! Enjoy...Inaugural Shave Update:
At 17 hours post-shave, it seems that my beard is back a bit quicker than if I had shaved with the Titanium Blackbird. Still an incredible, smooth shave; but purely from an efficiency standpoint, I think the Bird shaves my face, with my technique, just a bit closer. Hoping this info proves helpful for others.
Why ?The Athena, of course
Why ?
I think the Ti Dback is a fair amount more efficient than the Henson Ti +++ (I have had both) but I still think it will fall into a great place for your den based on your comments above.
Gus - I think a few shaves with it during adjustable April would be fine.Everyone has posted some excellent pics here but, truth be told, this razor just has to be held and seen to truly appreciate the expertise and quality of the whole to get a complete understanding what Paradigm envisioned and what JPM actually produced. I paid full entry price at the last minute and I can honestly say that this piece is underpriced. And I haven’t even shaved with it yet. I’m fighting the urge to not do so as I signed up for the Adjustable April event but, I might have to ask for a reprieve if it gets the best of me.
Truly a beautiful piece of kit….

What blades would you recommend ?Gus - I think a few shaves with it during adjustable April would be fine.
Just remember it’s more efficient than it feels and use a sharp, smooth blade.
