Hello gents and gals. So here's my opinion: The gillette travel tech, which was generously PIFed to me by mr Jayaruh, was my weapon of choice this morning. When I put it together, I was excited. Turned out to be good reasoning too. The TT is a great little shaver, and in my opinion much better than my fatboy adjustable. At least with the blades I have. So I got up this morning knowing I needed a nice shave for filling out applications and talking jobs with managers so I popped in a dorco and went to work. The razor seemed mild, but it cut cleaner than I was used to, especially ATG. And I love how short the handle is, make it for me to maneuver around the chin and upper lip. My four pass shave was super bbs and not a lick of irritation! Although I nicked my self on my lip, that was my fault. The only thing is I would prefer the handle to be knurled like my fatboy. Also, being my first three-piece razor, taking the blade out was a little tricky to get the hang of. All in all, I have a new favorite!
I'm glad you like the travel tech. It is a good shaver. Now, for your next 3-piece razor I suggest the fat handled tech. It is from the 30s and is one of my favorites. My favorite 3-piece is the Gillette NEW Open Comb.
I have fallen for my Fat handle tech as well. It has only provided me one bad shave, and that was because of my technique.

Jim I tried the original listing. I found the picture I posted by looking at the sellers other items, it's just like the one I got. I will take pictures of it when I receive it.
