Hando has kindly lent me his 37c. I currently use a Fatboy/Slim with a Feather/Gillette Yellow. What blade do you recommend? Mild or Sharp Derby or Feather. Any other tips gratefully received.
What blade with slant?

Start with a mild Derby until you get used to how the Slant handles ... shouldn't take more than a 2 or 3 shaves, a week tops.
Once you understand the unique dynamics of the razor, upgrade to Feather, and never look back.
I use Red Pack Israeli Personna blades. Close. Smooth. Irritation Free.
I use a feather in my slant. Great combo.
I am 2 days into my new 39c and this is the blade I have been using. I want to give it a week or so, but so far I am impressed.
Feather is my choice in the slant. This week I am trying out Super Iridiums and am not enjoying it. The first shave was not as close or comfortable as a Feather and today's was close but was weeper city. Feather's dont leave me with any weepers. I did go faster than normal though as it was a morning shave.
I usually use Red Personnas or Bic Chrome platinums in my slant. Astras and Gillette yellows are pretty good too though..
