What's new

Hi, everyone. Here's my first post.

About a year ago I came across YouTube videos of men shaving. I initially thought it a bit strange but was soon hooked. Out went the plastic disposables and in came the shiny metal razors that feel so much better to hold and use. I've never experienced such good shaves and it's no longer just a chore. RAD took hold and I now have twenty-plus razors, like a lot of you, I guess! I prefer shorter handles and have had great shaves from a number of Fatip razors which brings me to my latest acquisition. It was listed as a Piccolo Chrome but compared to the other Fatips, both nickel and chrome, this is nickel. I can't find the model number anywhere online (40191). The open comb has 9 teeth, unlike other Fatip open combs. Can anybody identify this razor, please? By the way, the shave from it is wonderful! Thanks!

Welcome to the forum and thanks for checking in with us. I know very little on Fatip razors so I will let other members help you out there.
 
Looks like a Piccolo handle and a Schone head. Whether that was intended or a mistake, hard to say. Premana is more of a cooperative group of small shops than a single organization, to my understanding.

And welcome!

Thanks, it’s an interesting razor!

Thanks again for your reply, Tanuki.
I’ve done some more research online and here on B&B and it is a Schöne head. That’s great because I have read about them and was going to find one. Result!

Good morning and a warm welcome to the wonderful world of DE, and to B&B too, @mickyW!

I can see that like most of us, you’re heading down the rabbit hole at a pace that will make it tough to easily escape! Still, it’s good fun around here...🤪
 
Welcome Micky, I too enjoy shaving with my Fatips. I like the Grande handle better, but, use a piccolo now and then, I hold the piccolo differently than my other razors, due to the diameter, but, I still get a great shave from it.
 
Thanks very much everyone for the warm welcome. I never realised how involved this could get! It’s just shaving, right? How wrong could I have been? I didn’t think I’d be learning to shave at my age!

I’m 62, and look at it as ‘learning to shave better’! 😁

I don’t think many of us realise how it pulls you in! I’ve been in since June 2020, and already I have eighteen razors, a dozen brushes, over thirty soaps, twenty shave sticks, twenty or so creams - and over 5,000 blades... 😬

Welcome to the funhouse! 😝
