Lately I have been using my razors that take the artist club type blades and enjoying them very much. Tonight I used my Piccolo and it refreshed my memory of what a great razor the Piccolo is. Of course I got a beautiful close and smooth shave. If not for the Piccolo I would probably get rid of all my DE razors. I will certainly always have my Piccolo. It is in a class by itself.

Yes they are more aggressive than a Gillette NEW long comb. The funny thing is, the Fatip is more aggressive than the NEW but I find the Fatip to be a smoother shaver.

Do you prefer piccolo or the Grande and why?

I use to think I liked the bigger handle on the Grande better but I've been using the Piccolo lately and now I think I like the feel of it better. It really boils down to just what appeals to you. The Piccolo is small but has more weight to it. They are both great razors.

That too is what draws me to the Fatip razor. That and the fact that even tho they are aggressive, they very smooth. If I could only keep one DE razor it would be a Fatip for sure.

I the biggest struggle for me hasn't been whether or not to buy a Fatip, but which model.
What finish do you want, nickel?
Probably nickel, love the classic look. It's just I like the size of the Grande, just wish the handle was heavier. May swap it out or add weight (via BB's epoxied inside).
