Safety Razor of the Month, March 2017: The Fatip

[KeenDogg]

Have you ever wanted to get away and see the best Italy has to offer????
Maybe you're interested in making a wish in the Trevi fountain.

OR... maybe you're thrilled to be exiled to Elba just as Napoleon was many years ago.

If that's the case, I invIte you to join me for the Safety Razor of the Month: March 2017- THE FATIP!!!

Come and spend the month visiting all this beauty has to offer: style, grace, and class!

No matter what Fatip version you have, you are welcome. Share what your shaving with and tell why you love your Fatip. Show some Italian flavor as well!

So grab your Fatip and one of these:

And head out to here:

For an Italian tour filled with the smooth shaves of the Fatip! Hope to see you there!

Since the nineteenth century, PREMANA, picturesque and isolated village in the mountains bordering the Lecco lake, has been a renowned centre for the production of blades , scissors and knives .

The roots of this specialisation in iron-related industry trace back to the Roman Empire times, when important iron veins were discovered in the region.
Since 1882, FAZZINI 's family has been among the most recognised manufacturers of blades and scissors .

Thank you, Doug! That's wonderful information!. I've already learned something today!

Sounds like your gears are turning! What if when they sold the car, they gave you a matching razor???

Brilliant!

I love my Piccolo! It's the only non-vintage razor I use, and I use it pretty often. I really think they hit the nail on the head when it comes quality vs cost.

Very nice photo, Troy. I feel the same way about the Fatip.

But who wants to pay $75,000 for a razor?

I have a Fatip in my shopping cart at an online retailer, but am currently in a wife-imposed sabbatical

I'd say liberate it, but I wouldn't want on her bad side. I know how to pick my battles as I'm sure you do.
Hey, maybe she'll ease up. It's not March yet!!! Good luck bro!

I have been thinking about a Fatip but have been trying to dial back my RAD. Since I'm presently not working I'll wait until the new job is found before pulling the trigger on the Fatip. But as for Italian cars, I'll take this one, than you very much.....1965 Lamborghini 350 GT

Like I saved with it?

Seriously: After going back to my Merkur 15C this week, I was thinking of the Piccolo. Then today realized that I have my Schick Adjustable set about 3.75 out of 9, so a Piccolo might not be the best choice for me.
