My FrankenFamex

I received two wonderful French razors a little more than a week ago. One was a NOS LeCoq Cage head and the other a nice user Famex that came with an additional head. A friend on another board suggested a Rockwell top cap which would be compatible with any standard razor handle. When the cap arrived I grabbed an extra Ikon Barberpole handle I had and voila, FrankenFamex! Ironically, I think I prefer the balance and heft of the FrankenFamex to the real deal! Go figure!

Very nice. I like the unique head design on those. I’ve read those are pretty aggressive but I bet the top cap has something to do with that.
BTW, I think that is an ATT atlas handle, which I think is a very good handle.
Enjoy!

You’re correct! It is an Atlas handle. I had it wedded to an Ikon head and forgot that it was an ATT handle. I actually really like an efficient shave. These razors deliver.
