My new Retro I received in the mail last Monday is up in my rotation for the second week of OCtober. My Retro is all lined up to go with a Gillette Platinum blade, Proraso Red, Semogue 620, and Figaro Monsieur Gold Splash. I really look forward to shaving with the Retro. Right now I feel that it is my most beautiful Fatip I own. Its fit and finish, in nickel, is really excellent and the lines are great. The handle is a bit longer than I prefer, but like the longer Joris and Fatip wood handle razors I'm hoping I don't notice the handle at all. The total size of the Reto is about 4" or 10 cm. We'll see, and I'll try to give my opinion the slipperiness of the handle for Esox. First shave report coming up tomorrow on Monday.
