Brush: Executive Shaving Medium Jock synthetic
Razor: Gillette Fatboy (pass around)
Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock Super Stainless (1)

My first use of the Gillette Fatboy and just wow. What a razor.

I used setting 3 and used my usual 3 pass routine with no issues at all. The blade glided with very little feel, as though there wasn't a blade at all.

A BBS finish will minimum fuss. A great shave!

Cream: The Executive Shaving Company Natural

Razor: Gillette Fatboy (pass around)
Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock Super Stainless (2)

My 2nd use of the Gillette Fatboy and again it did not disappoint. For a razor of this era to be such a joy to use is mind blowing!

I moved up to setting 4 and the result was similar to that if the night before. The blade was definitely giving more feeling but it worked away effortlessly.

Another 3 pass shave with another BBS finish. What a fantastic razor!
