I created this thread after reading a quote from Thirdeye on this thread:
"[Gillette] changed the inner mechanics in 1960 eliminating on washer. The early model if overtightened would have a shaky feel even if the doors where tight. Basically it was turned past adjustment and the inner shaft then could [move] up and down slightly."
I have recently been looking for a Fatboy razor, and am very interested to know the differences between the years.
Does anyone have a pre-1960 Fatboy and a post-1960 Fatboy to compare the two? Is one "superior" to another in respect to the build quality?
