Since I'm on the road a lot - I bring a bit of gear with me - helps my day get started in the right way.
I'm "stuck" with these for the next few weeks - then time to change them up again.
In any event - here's my current rotation - take a few shots and post yours as well.
1920 Gillette Big Fellow Old - Tradere OC - Fatip with UFO Kaiser - Muhle R41 Grande - New York Shaving Mariner with iKon OSS
I would be very hard pressed to choose between them; they all shave exceedingly well and one could do far worse than simply choosing one of them and sticking with it. I will say that the 1920 Big Fellow Old Style does a remarkable job - especially since it's 92 years old - it's hard to believe that something that old can shave as well or better than any of the new stuff.
We all know about the R41 - and I'm finding the Fatip/Kaiser combo slightly less aggressive. The Mariner/OSS handle combo is a bit less aggressive than the Fatip and may well shave "smoother" than either the R41 or the Fatip. The Tradere continues to lead in the quality department - although one cannot help but be impressed with the UFO Kaiser handle.
Please forgive the cell phone pic quality with the hotel towel backdrop.
