    Mike's Barber Shop added to my "try in 2015 list". The comment above makes me assume I am gonna like it a lot.:)

    A friend let me try his ATT M2 open comb and that started my search for an OC. After a lot of reading posts, I decided on the New LC. While it is my aggressive than my Merkur 34c and Super Speed, I have found it to be milder than I would have thought and very efficient. It is quickly turning into my favorite razor. I can only imagine what I'll think after the 30 day January. If you get a chance you should consider giving a New OC a try.

    I learned using the toe end of my SR made for a better shave and slowed down the process of shaving today... I got the idea from David of central Florida asking if that was normal to use the two to shave with and Kevin answering him...that is how he does it and by God that technique worked very well for me.

    That the 59' fatboy I picked up for $21 with four other razors shaves pretty good. I think I got it so cheap because the adjustment dial was completely stuck. After some mineral oil and a little help from a vice grip I got it moving real smoothly. Fatboy.jpg

    I know someone on another forum that cleans and repairs them if you are interested. Here's what he did with mine.

    One of these days I think I'm going to have to pick up a Slim or Fatboy. The more you people write and post pics of them, the more interesting they become.

    Slims are relatively inexpensive and plentiful.

    You really should. The only razor that competes with the Fatboy for me is my new R41. Only two shaves in, but I think I may still like the wide open Fatboy more.

    Would that be Capt. Murphy? And did I see that he does it for free?
