Brush and soap:
Omega 80097 and Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber:
For this morning's shave, the Omega 80097 with the Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber was ready. These soaps are very easy to lather up, all have their specific scent, which is nicely present in the foam, can tolerate a nice sip of water, which makes it easy to shave.
Blade and razor:
The PolSilver Super Iridium for the 5th x used.
Still comparing the PolSilver Super Iridium and it can be said, that the difference between the real one, which was in the razor this morning, and the suspected fake has become very large. Shaving with the same razor as yesterday resulted in a lovely close shave, which was absolutely smooth. In the Gillette Black Beauty Long Handle adjustable at 5, a setting for a truly smooth and safe shave, the PolSilver Super Iridium was a wolf in sheep's clothing. Smooth shaved in 3 rounds with a super feel and absolutely no annoying stuff. This blade and the combination is top.
Result: BBS.
Last but not least: Splashing with lots of edc Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün and lubricating with a good moisturizing cream Naturlife Krem Vazelin Argan Ve Aloevera Özlü took good care of things. After that a nice water, Pinaud-Clubman Special Reserve, made that the Monday had a good start again.

It was a good thing i remembered how my first shaves with the Fatip OC Piccolo went, so i started very careful. After some strokes i decided it was a mild one, and prompt cut my neck. Back to be more careful with pressure, and a DFS in one go. I could add another round to be BBS, but i feel a tad under the weather, so i cant be bothered. rasierensmilie
My first impressions are good, it is a shame the blade sticks out at the sides, how much more can it cost to cover it all.. The handle looks great, but has some slight design flaws, the change from the barberpole to the knob at the end feels sharp. The grip is good, i can not spot any flaw in the coating anywhere, and i am very satisfied with the overal look and handling. Such a shame they again have used their own design screw top, so the handle will not fit anything not Fatip.

The soap smells like Roses, a bit at least, not wildly so, with something else (yeah must be the Rosehip - genius) i am undecided. Lather quality is good, amount of lather excellent, not much work is needed to create a bowl full of fluffy foam!
It also slides great, so the quality gets an A+ from me :)
 
Yesterday's evening shave

Prep
M-keramiek scuttle
Yaqi aqua brush 24mm
Barbon shaving cream
Pradat brun frameback l'ecleqtique
Vdh alum
Dickinsons witch hazel
Pitralon original, isana ultrasensitive balsem

Now a full shave with pradat brun. That was very enjoyable. I misread the stamp on the blade. It is l'ecleqtique instead of l'électrique which is of course a shame.

@Wilco Roos thanks for the first review of the fatip slant. Mine is somewhere in limbo. I get all kind of confusing statements that they missed delivery and that I can pick it up somewhere and that they are now out trying to delivery it again.

Ow, that stinks, i do hope it turns up, I have had the same problem with them on another delivery from Germany, No show, the package was lost, missing, they did not know, and a week later without any msg or notification it was delivered (the box looking very ragged). So yours might make an unexpected appearance still ;)

Brush and soap:
J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm and Chiseled Face Trade Winds:
The J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm knocked a nice foam from the Chiseled Face Trade Winds, in which according to the manufacturer I had to experience the following:
Our fresh aquatic scent – ocean, ozone, cucumber and a touch of mint backed up by a base of old spice. The closest you can get to sailing a tall ship without leaving your bathroom!
This scent reminds me of spending fresh spring morning on the water with an old friend. Cool and fresh – the perfect scent to kick off the morning.
This scent reminds me of a fresh spring morning on the water with an old friend. Cool and fresh - the perfect fragrance to start the morning with.Well, it's a masculine scent for sure and I like it too. I can smell some tar and wood in the distance, but cucumber and sea breeze and the rest, it must have sprung from the creator's imagination, but I like what is said about it. My summary pleasant good masculine soap.
Blade and razor:
The PolSilver Super Iridium used for the 6th x.
PolSilver Super Iridium today the real one for the 6ex use and this razor really wins out on sharpness and comfort. Now I understand that there are a lot of people who say they can't shave with a WSilver. They must have hit the others as well. In the Rockwell Razors 6s with plate 4 the PolSilver Super Iridium shaves like sunshine. How beautiful is that a sun with a sea breeze. It made me happy again.
Result: BBS.
Finally: With the Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, Naturlife Krem Vazelin Argan Ve Aloevera Özlü and Pinaud-Clubman After shave lotion Original completed this pleasure.

@Harkos busy morning like this with twice shaving and after 6 more times using the same knife.:kaputtlachen1

@Wilco Roos how is the alignment of the blade on the bottom and the top plate increased in quality?

I still haven't received any response from Italy, I'd like to send you an email but yes Italian is not very good so I hope the translation site Deeple.com can make something of it.:confused:
 
@jaap ouderwets scheren @ehv the FatipSlantPackage is coming from Lombardy, which is the area in Italy where most CoVid19 cases are, and where some towns are in lockdown since sunday. We are now officially suspect.
 
@efsk I have not received my package yet. It has been delivered to a parcel station.

My collection is small compared to yours. But if I finish my rotation of slants and schragschnitt and then start with the fatips. By that time the virus has died in the parcel. :)
