I have a fatboy and a slim. From what I gather, the slim and the BB have pretty much the same head. I just got the 2 former ones within the last month. The BB seems to be more desirable lately than the slim on the auction blocks.
On this forum, some people swear by the BB, some the other 2. I have also read here that the BB is not made as well, and with some aluminum, and later models with nylon on the baseplate.
I know I dont “need” another razor to go with my umteen other ones. But other than having it in my collection, is it really worth getting BB? Maybe a 109 because of the longer handle?
And for reference, I have, among others, pre and post war techs, a red tip superspeed, a Baili 177, Weishi 9306 long, king c gillete, merkur 33c, maagards v3,v3m, v3a, baili 131, many schick injectors, ming shi futur clone, merkur progress, several GEMs, Supply V2, and on the way: ming shi 3000s and weishi adjustable (yintal branded).
thanks
