The Surprising Fasan Slant

[Chester]

I've had two really really good shaves from a Fasan (sp?) slant. It's an open-comb slant (wicked twist on the blade, too) in bakelite. I've thrown a souplex blade in it and the results have been awesome. I wish I had a better handle on the availability of a metal version of this razor. This was one of my back-of-the-rack picks, and I've been totally delighted by it.
Just sharing the excitement,

I'm not sure which Fasan you have, there is the regular slant and the double slant.
The bakelite double slant should have a dot on it.
That version also comes with a metal handle and metal cap, but the comb is still bakelite.
I'm not sure if the regular slant comes in anything but bakelite. Maybe it does and I just haven't seen it yet.

Um, a picture?
Well, the Fasan has been covered before.

Mine does not have a dot, and there's no cap/button at the bottom of the handle, and there's no identifying marks that indicate it's truly a Fasan, but it looks just like one.

For reference here is my clear Fasan open comb slant.
