This was my first use of the new DE blade by PAA. While I will not rush to judgment, my initial impression is that this is an excellent blade. I found it sharp yet smooth. It passed with flying colors the post-shave alum test. Simply an outstanding shave. The TF Ebene Fume works is a very nice woodsy scent with a strong incense vibe to it. It is not a very powerful cologne and stays close to the skin, which is what I prefer. If you want a bold, in your face scent, this is not for you. IMG_0544.jpg

Just a great soap! Nice scent with cooling sensation plus a wonderfully creamy and slick lather!
An absolutely cracking shave with this razor paired with the blade! So easy to whip around...silky smooth in 3passes for a bbs finish. Much faster too...no regrets for this and yesterday's Kamisori. Aftershaves were terrific!
