walden@wetshav.ing 2 weeks agoA few have come across my desk. My favorite is the Classic Testina Gentile in Chrome.
Classic refers to the handle, and Gentile (Gentle) refers to the head. There’s also a slant Gentile I think, and maybe some other handle options.
I don’t know what Testina means. https://www.fatip.it/en/the-razor/
The Gentile head is mild-medium blade feel with above average efficiency. Brass construction.
Fatip threading is smaller than the standard, so Fatip handles won’t fit most other heads, but Fatip heads will fit other handles provided the threads are deep enough. Same as Gillette razors, but the threads are longer/deeper.
