    Great find....box and all! A DE is a must have, great way to change it up once in awhile....of course, we'll expect to see it in a SOTD and what you thought of the shave.

    It's been in many of my SOTDs this summer.
    Loving the shaves with this razor. I normally use it set on 8 with a Personna or Astra blade. Just shaved with it this morning.

    Default I also found a Fatboy

    I was on eBay one day & came across a listing with $110, BIN or make offer, so I looked it over & made an offer well below $100 & I waited & waited & waited then he finally replied That he'd take my offer. it was low enough that he had to think about it for awhile. I, being a straight razor person just thought for those days I'm in a big hurry, this might come in handy (very rare) but it happens at times. I love shaving with a straight. I was happy to get this though just for those very rare days plus for my collection. I have seen some of these go for over $200 on eBay in mint condition & mine isn't too far from it. Not bad for a '59 plus I didn't pay such a high price just to get one in just a little better condition. More power to ya Leatherstockiings!

    Great find! I used to have one of those, misplaced it during a move 40 years ago, regrettably. I think I would appreciate it more now.
    If it's worth doing, it's worth doing it well!

    Nice score. I have one too for those days where I can't devote the proper time to my straight.
