I was a little disappointed about the packaging when I received my 5 piece Atlas OC $300 set but the craftmanship is outstanding, craftsmanship is not synonymous with the Fatip. Really, I got my Fatip Grande in a box with a lid, cheap box but still a box with a lid. I got my $300 ATT OC state of the art set in a paperthin small squashed box, go figure.
I have only had 2 shaves with the R2 plate and this morning will be the 3rd with a new Feather blade. So far I am observing that the R2 is not as efficient as my Fatips but I still have gotten 2 BBS. They did require way more touchups than my Fatips. Might well be I am still getting used to the new razor as the second shave required less touchups than the first as I had a different approach but still more than my Fatips.
I can only get 3 shaves with a new Feather blade on my Fatips or R2 then I can use the same blade 3-4 more times on my Progress and buff at a low setting problem areas BBS without causing blood. Problem is I enjoy the efficient BBS Fatip shaves so much the Progress has 4-5 Feathers to shave with now and counting..lol.
The H2 plate will get the next new Feather's 3 first shaves. Sorry M2..lol. From what I can see my Fatips are aggressive from blade exposure and the blade angle sits slightly flatter from the OC compared to the ATT. The Fatip is a great design and a handsome looking razor. Proof so many have been sold and have a great following.
As for the ATT OC system it looks to get its aggressiveness mainly from the gap to the OC. The blade has also a slightly steeper angle compared to the Fatip towards the OC.
Any other Fatip and ATT OC owners want to chime in on the differences and experiences or have questions are welcome. We can all learn something new. I will be reporting as I get new revelations.
