A few days ago I received my new razors.
A Parker Semi-Slant and a Fatip Grande OC.
I wanted something aggressive, but not too aggressive, just a bit milder than R41.
Now I have tried them both and I am very satisfied with them.
I tried them both with Astra SS and Arko Shave Stick and Muhle boar brush.
Parker Semi was not as aggressive as I thought it would be, but very efficient.
The handle has a superb grip even with wet and soapy fingers.
This is my very first slant and it took a few strokes before I found the right angle, and then it was a walk in the park.
Three passes, wtg, xtg and just a light atg for the final touch
Today I tried the Fatip Grande and after reading about alignment issues and imperfect plating I think I received a perfect specimen
The blade alignment was spot on and the razor was more aggressive than the Parker, but not as aggressive as the R41.
The razor was heavier than I expected and was very comfortable.
It was very easy to find the right angle and the razor felt very intuitive to use.
As with the Parker it was a three pass shave, wtg, xtg and just a lighter atg for the final touch.
Both razors was very comfortable and I got no nicks, cuts or irritation at all.
