The hell,

You newer members..........."Don't be a luddy duddy, don't be a mooncalf, don't be a jabbernowl!" Good advice from W C Fields regarding not trying this razor! Owned by Tom Jones I believe.

I believe the razor comes from a parallel universe where the razor was invented before the blades that go in it. For years these mechanical contraptions sat idle on mantlepieces, waiting for a day when someone would invent something to give them purpose.
Without someone trying this kind offering out the razor has been consigned to its former life; a museum piece patiently waiting to be enjoyed again.
Give this razor a purpose!!
 
Hi Guys. I haven't been around for quite a while and did get the fatboy to try before. I'm thinking of buying a Fatboy of my own so wouldn't mind trying out Martin's Fatboy again if I can. Let me know.

Contact Sandalwoody and thanks for asking.

Hi all, if the Fatboy is free, I'd really like to test it again. Got a whole heap of new blades and have belatedly realised some may work better in a less aggressive razor than my C37 slant. Will get onto Sandalwoody or Zafar if I don't hear back. Thanks!
 
Amazing how this is still going 14 years later! I had it for a very short time and snapped up a Slim on the basis of it. Incredibly generous of Dodgy to just let it float around in here all these years, I can't imagine lending my Slim to my own dad... (who in any case has a beard, or used electric foil razors, and thus knows nothing of true shaves!)
 
The Fatboy has landed! Too late for a shave today. Nice sleeves full of blades and soaps too. Cool to see how the goodybag has changed since I had it a year or two ago. Fatboy looks absolutely unchanged
 
Jeeez, the hell is going on here? Hard to believe someone else hasn't been tempted to recently try one of the best razors ever made...... and in good shape too! I mean really what is up.

I might have mentioned this (for the newer members sake) once or twice before being owned by Margaret Thatcher or maybe it just came to me now. Don't let this piece of culinary provenance related history slide from your grasp!

Go on and change your life.
