Thread: Fat Tip Italian Safety Razor

That's an Italian made Fatip Piccolo. Nice aggressive razors that wont break the bank.

Nice looking Open Comb DE. I would do a full 3 pass shave before passing final judgement on how aggressive it is though.

Gentlemen,
The Fatip is a fine shaver, although quite aggressive. The shave head is similar to that on the French-made Joris. If I recall correctly, one company made the shave head for the other? I could be thinking of something else, too. I remember calling the Fatip the poor man's Joris. Fit and finish on the Fatip are not the greatest. Still, the razor is worth the money, if you like an aggressive razor.

I suppose you are right Bob. I did use it on my most tender places though ( neck and chin)

Not saying it will change your initial impression but the cumulative effect of multiple pass can make a difference. Open Comb DEs are among my favourites. Virtually clog proof by design and an aggressive/efficient one is very close shaving.

Nice shavers, providing you pay attention to your technique!
