I had a simply stunning shave this afternoon with the Apex Ti.
I say stunning because I have the apex SS version as well but the Ti version is another step above it in smoothness.
The Apex SS version is very efficient and smooth also but you get the feeling it could bite if your technique is a little bit off on the day , where as the Ti version is somewhat more forgiving in my opinion.
I also found the razor very nimble and easy to use. No doubt helped by the light weight the second pass felt like it was for touch-ups only the shave was that good.
I was meant to use Kentucky rain shaving soap for the shave, but after bowl lathering the soap, I went to get a coffee and On return knocked the bowl of the counter with the coffee cup.
Obviously, it was meant to be The Fine accoutrements Latigo was an excellent replacement as Kentucky rain was from a small sample pot.
Finished of nicely with 4711 Original Eau De Cologne Aftershave.
1 pass WTG 1 pass ATG no touch-ups done.
No, nicks no worries.
Cheers.
