I'm actually getting a DFS from a Fatboy.
Sometimes things suprise you (well, me at least), especially if they've been hyped to no end. About a month into wetshaving I purchased a cased Fatboy, and sold it soon after because I needed money. I never got to shave with it. It kept me wondering if I had missed something.
Well, I kept looking for a good user grade Fatboy after that and finally picked one up. I loaded it up with my standard blade (feather), set it to 3 and gave it a shot. Nice shave buy not quite as close as i wanted. I moved it up to 4 and it has been there for 2 weeks now.
Now I don't know if I just got lucky and this is a exceptionally good Fatboy (I've noticed older razors of the same make can have different blade gaps due to safety bar issues), but I really enjoy the shave it gives me. It's pretty ugly, so I may unload some other equipment so I can have it replated. This one is definitely going into the rotation.
