Got myself a '62 Fatboy. Been 25+ years since I've shaved with a DE. I need your "druthers" on blades. I don't need sources; I need your likes and/or dislikes. I used to use Personna, Wilkinson Sword, Gillette Platinum (?), etc. What's the good stuff now? Thanks in advance cheers FTRPLT

62' Fatboy, great razor. I like the personna platinum's, they work fine for me and seem to be of consistent quality. Good luck with the new razor.

I use several different blades. I like Feathers and Gillette 7 o'clock in the yellow package. I also use a lot of Derby's. All work well for me.

Feathers are nice... Personna works great.. Derbys are smooth...

they are the Trinity of DE blades IMO. I'll use those Wal-Mart Gilettes if I absolutely have to.

Grow a beard and quit wasting time in the morning shaving and use the money you save on blades to buy more pipes and tobacco! Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

JP Some of us have Conservative Work Sites that expect their employee's to be clean shaven instead of a Liberal Organization where nobody is allowed to comment on your appearance (or work ethic for that matter) regardless of how much you look like a hippie.
