I survived a lathey foreman
Had to take my New birth year Gillette 1959 E4 Fatboy for it's resurrected first shave with it's new owner (ME), cleaned up it looks fairly new & was handled & looked after very well by previous owners. The shave is a little different than my Gillette slim because it arches the blade more in the barn doors bay when closed(smooth). Results CCS,DFS,BBS and can't complain about those results on started setting 5 and changing to 6 on Gillette aggressiveness system on the fly:a12:. Alum block indicated no issues with skin irritation.Gillette 7 Oclock (2) and it performed well.

For the first shave it felt good in the hand and the shave was excellent and in my sweet spot for final results.
Have some great shaves.

Imagining solutions for imaginary problems
Been a while since I've done a straight DE shave, but just picked up this Gillette Short Comb from the BST -- came in a Bostonian case. The blade is a brand new Voskhod. A truly excellent shave!!!
