Result: 4.6/5.0 OK, where do I begin. I used the new Fatboy on Saturday and found it to be a nice mild shave. I use the Gold Super Adjustable on Sunday and Today. Also a mild shave. I threw the Treets in the Super Adjustable today. I'm trying to find the right razor for these blades. Guess what? They did fine in this razor. Three very good shaves.
