Forum GOD!
Out of all the adjustables I've tried (Slim - BB - Progress - Futur - Rex) Futur is the only one I'm keeping.

Due to the volume of RAD I've had to wade through, only those starred have ever been used by me. The Rex is up next.
I also have a beautiful NOS Gillette Black Beauty Y3 that I bought for just over £30 after Christmas. It came complete with its original packaging. I had no idea what I was buying at the time - it was my first vintage DE (and second ever DE after my 34C). It's in great condition but I'm waiting for the right occasion to use it.
