Shave Newbie
Hello everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster. I've always wanted a Fatboy (195 to be precise), so the wife and I went antiquing today. Lo and behold, came across one with it factory case! It was in nearly pristine condition (both razor and case), so jumped on it. Brought it home, cleaned it up, and got her shining. Going to use it for my SOTD tomorrow and will report back. I love my short handled black beauty, so I'm sure this will not disappoint.

Hi @kcjeepguy glad to see you posting and congratulations on finding a nice Fatboy in the wild! I’ve been lucky enough to find a few in the wild myself and it’s a blast every time you find something in great condition like yours.

I’m a Missourian too, not on the Eastern side of the state, Hillsboro.
 
Any vintage razor rescued from the wild is a good thing. Even better when its something you wanted. Congrats. And Welcome.
