You're putting in a lot of work with that Fat Boy! I love seeing when someone finds a razor that "just does it for me"!

The more I use it the better! I love shaving with it. The experience I've gained over the last few months shaving with the same razor everyday has been invaluable. I'd say that it all clicked back in early July and this 62 year old razor is giving me the best shaves of my life!

very cool Paul.nice shave.slimmer head than the fatboy,easier under the nose..

Never having done a side by side with my two Apollo Mikrons I decided it was time. Brushless shave, homemade oil, BIC blades, both set at five stops (different dial calibration in the two). I've used the bigger 50s model more often than the more svelte 60s model and appreciated the easier handling of the latter. The newer was also a bit noisier. Both smooth and efficient, no third party pickups this day.

The last of the Kai's for awhile. Good blades but too pricey for single use.

Thursday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Palmolive Shave Cream
Jayaruh #424 Synthetic
TARMAX by Tom
Astra SP
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave

The Palmolive Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #424 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the TARMAX Razor by Tom set on 8 with an Astra SP Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
