I recently acquired this Fata (possibly FATA) three piece . Beautiful silver plate, 55g. A three hole design with geometry similar to Gillette Long Comb but its construction is unique.

Fata/BIC (1). A mild razor requiring some pressure and attention to angle but ultimately an excellent shave. Sharp BIC is a good match. Results better than my last LC shaves but it could just be the marvelous silver plate having its way with me.
Beautiful razor. In terms of mildness, what modern razor would you compare it to?

Look out for Italians, the head is identical to Metropolis/Corona/Super Neon razors. It could also be that there was one head and only the handles/markings differed.
