Razorine Flatboy

I bought one yesterday (also with the 90mm handle).  It should arrive on Saturday.  I'm looking forward to it.

JJ Shaves in the UK is offering the Razorine Flatboy with their custom bright nickel plate as an option. Very tempting!

They also offer nickel plating services at very low rates and the results speak for themselves.

I am in. Two are better then one.

Unfortunately jjshaves.com does not sell to the USA.

I bought a nickel plated Flatboy from them before with no issues.

Well it turns out you are right.  Yesterday I tried and was denied shipping to USA; today I tried and found I could buy it at £47 with £20 shipping.  That translates to $80, so I bought the plain brass one from Geo Fatboy instead.  If I like it enough, I'll have it plated for about the same amount of money.  I don't like raw brass.

I was able to just purchase 2 on their website via Apple Pay so if someone wants one, let me know. I was only wanting 1 but made a mistake. No big deal as long as they ship.

I got mine in the mail today, and had my first shave with it, which was satisfactory.  There was something about it that I noticed, which I hadn't heard mentioned yet:  The blade has a smile (it sags in the middle) on both sides.  Unfortunately I don't have the camera or camera skill to document it with, but it's definitely there.

The blade loaded into the head on mine is perfectly straight and even with no sagging. The shave is the same every time with zero issues.

A picture is worth a thousand words.  This Flatboy bows the blade.  Maybe yours doesn't, but I'd bet otherwise.

I got mine and if I crank down and tighten the handle as much as possible, there is a slight sag but i did a slight turn backward and its fine and still tight.  I have 2 more on the way in the nickel plated version.  The one i got first is from Shave Nation and is the brass headed one.  I will probably take a break from my Wolfman WR-3's to use this one and see how it shaves next.

Finally got around to shaving with this razor and I must say, it’s a baaaaaad boy!! I like it a lot! Switched out the handle for a bronze WRH7 and used a Gillette Silver Blue and this thing gave me a 3 pass BBS effortlessly! I have 2 Nickel plated ones that should be delivered next week but this brass head is definitely a keeper. I love the look of flat headed razors and this one gives a great shave at an incredible price so it stays in my rotation for a long while.
