I bought it off of @Herm2502. It came with a Maggard OC head, Gillette old style type. DE89's are usually too mild for me, but with this heavy handle it works out better.

Normally I don't shave on Sundays - however Citrus Sunday gave me an opportunity to try out my Fatboy again. I just received my Gillette Fatboy a couple days ago. 1961 G1 Fatboy with a Ladas blade on setting number 5. Omega Professional Boar brush, Captain's Choice bowl, Taylor of Old Bond Street Grapefruit shaving cream, followed by Nivea Post Shave Balm (dry here today) and finished with a splash of Fine L'Orange Noir. 3 passes and a very close smooth shave.

Looks like my normal week of shaving is not going to be normal this coming week. I normally shave three times a week but with several "social" engagements I will be shaving almost everyday. So I decided why not start today by joining you guys with Citrus Sunday. Used a soap I that has not been in my rotation for some time - Art of Shaving Lemon. It actually has a very nice lemony scent but it is not as slick a soap as I like. I bought a puck because of the scent. Ran it through the cheese grater and pressed it into a 1 cup Pyrex glass storage container. However, it does make a very nice lather. Did a bowl lather. Used my new (old) 1961 G1 Fatboy with a Voskhod blade, an Omega Hi-Brush synthetic and ended with Nivea Post Shave Balm and a splash of Fine L'Orange Noir. Off and running for a full week's worth of shaving.
Well I just saw this too late for to day; maybe next Sunday. Lime's my favorite! Pinaud Lime Sec Pinaud Lime Musk Avon Island Lime

Gillette Fusion (explication will follow for my most heinous act) Hardright Davy Jones 22mm Synthetic brush Stirling Island Man soap Blue Steel AS (50/50 AV and Florida Water) Simpson ASB I was assisting my lovely wife with her professional education (Home Health Aid) by letting her shave me. I love her dearly, but I'm not unhinged enough to let her shave me with a DE razor. I let her shave me once a week to give her practice.
