I'm expecting a Fatboy adjustable in the mail in the next couple of days, and am looking for suggestions as to how to test it out. I'll be traveling for a week or two during the holidays, and I'm debating taking it as my only razor for the trip.
I've been playing around with safety razors for a couple months, and have shaved with a decent number of types, ranging from Gillette comb guards to TTO's like Superspeeds and the Lady's model, as well as a variety of Injector models. So, I'm pretty confident that I can throw a blade in and use the razor, but I'm very open to suggestions.
I currently have a wide selection of blades on hand, or on order: Derby, 7AM, Sharp, Merkur, Feather, TESCO, US Persona, and Russian Gillette. Any suggestions as to which blades to take?
Any suggestions as to what settings on the razor to use? I've heard to shave WTG with a higher setting such as 4 or 5 and then dial back for ATG passes? Does the setting on an adjustable correlate to various non-adjustable models, like 2=Tech and 4 =Superspeed?
