Personally I like my 40's Super Speeds far more than my Fatboys. That being said I love the look of the Fatboy and will keep them in my collection. Different strokes for different folks.
Good is always highly subjective. No DE is best for everyone. The only way to answer your question is to try for yourself and see. You can't just poll others to determine which DE's work best for you. The Fatboy wasn't among my favorites but it certainly has its following.I've been curious as to why fatboys sell so high on the bay. Are they that good of a razor?
I have one in my collection. It has a nice weight and feel to it, ..... but (as stated in an earlier post) it is a meh shave.
I have used it several times. I use it for a week straight at a time, and have tried it with different blades and settings.
It has never matched my New and Old types for a great face and head shave. Even my Supersped, Aristocrats and Early-war Tech have provided better shaves.
I actually have a black beauty I'm gonna try out soon. I got it in a pif a while back and I'm just getting the courage to venture into unknown territory. I am fairly new to this so I wanna make sure I got a good technique down before I switch razors.Get a Slim. [emoji106]1: Find out what it's all about for less- slimmer head, too.
