Yes.
WWII.

Thanks.

this tread had me thinking about tomorrow's shave
twisted my arm

yep y'all made up my mind. except I'm gonna put a persona lab in it

why wait gotta clean up for church tonight
I'm gonna give this razor a spin. Been a while since I used it

WWII-No date codes-1938-1942

Picked up another one in a case today. Pretty grungy. I week post photos later.

Love mine too, but I like the razor in my avatar best. Some guys say to put bird shot in the handle to make it even more hefty.
Congratulations to you!!!

All this FH Tech talk has made me pull my pre-war razor out.

The only photo I have. It cleaned up really well. Gold tone with very little plate loss.

Pretty clean Tech.

Nice...

Just as an FYI, that head is not an Early Tech (pre-war). It came on the later Ball End Techs. Does the razor pan have triangular holes in it?

No. I believe this one is a'51. I do have a Canadian pre war FH tech and I do post comparison photos. I have about 5 other techs as well.

It's a good looking combo, that's for sure.

Here is a comparison of my two Fat Handle Techs. The Gold one on the left is a birth year razor "Y4", and the onr on the right is the Canadian '38-42.

Broken down side by side.

The base plates for comparison

My other techs for comparison. From top left.
USA BEH - Y4 / Canada BEH - X4
Canada FHT - Y4 / Canada BEH - W2
Canada FHT - '38-42 / USA BEH - No date code - '46-50 (Gold)
USA BEH - D4

Mine is the pre-war Tech.

I have a Gold colored one.

Congrats! - That went straight to my wish list

OMG! I loaded my first Feather in my prewar Tech. That was the best shave I've gotten yet!

I have a couple of these I am pondering a re-plating job on. They're great razors. Mine are pretty rough looking but remain perfectly functional and in the rotation.
