This morning, I have found this beautiful Fatboy (F-4 1960) at a flea market. One of the cleanest I've ever purchased, and one of the very few razors I've found in the Canadian wild.
It came with the case which is a wee bit rough and an instructions leaflet in French.

Great find, @Maxime D. - well done, Mate.

I already own several timeless base plates so I decided to procure a handle and cap to make a second razor for my travel kit.




Assembled should look like this.

Feather AS-D2, a recent birthday gift. I've been wanting one for quite a while and made no shaving-related purchases last year, so this little beauty is very welcome!

Have been looking forward to trying this one for a couple of years now...

Perfectly balanced and definitely more nimble than the Timesless, Variant or the 6S...but that's only my opinion and only after 1 shave

Well I can a sure you that you’re new razor looks like a bloody Thor Hammer
