Very Close Shave

In my first use it did take three passes to get a BBS shave, which I was not aiming for. I used a new Personna (Germany) blade, Clubman Pinaud shave soap and a cheap boar bristle brush, ending with Gillette after shave gel (I always do a second application about a half hour after the first). For a tiny razor it is very nimble and maneuverable. I did get a lot of blade feel and a fair amount of tugging where my five day old moderate beard was most dense. No nicks or cuts but I always have post-shave razor burn which takes 18-24 hours to dissipate. The razor burn with the Il Piccolo was moderate. A great travel razor at a great price.

This is my new favorite razor! I was a little hesitant to order a Fatip because of the mixed reviews but I really wanted to try an open comb razor; I'm glad I did. The fit and finish was extremely good, as was the blade alignment. I looked for an issue and honestly couldn't find one; this simply does not look like a twenty dollar razor. One word to describe the performance is: efficient. The open comb and weight make this a shaving beast. If your technique is poor, the shaving beast will eat you; respect the beast. NO PRESSURE- let the weight of the razor do the work. I'd also suggest a smooth, mild blade (it pairs really well with my favored Astra Green). If you are an experienced wet shaver and you're interested in open combs- get this Piccolo. You will not be disappointed.

What a great little razor! Got an excellent one pass shave this morning. I know Fatip has had quality control issues, but the fit and finish on mine was fine. Some of the tooling is a little rough, but it shaved really well!

Pretty great little razor at a VERY reasonable price. The Piccolo has good weight, balance, perfect blade alignment, and efficient shaver. It is also a smaller razor hence the name piccolo, for reference is a little smaller than a vintage super speed. One detail I love about this razor is that the ends of the blades don't protrude beyond the head much at all which which I personally like. The only real con I have is that the handle is poorly designed. The second there is any moisture it does become quite slick and since it is a smaller razor it does prove to be a pain to hold on to. This is all avoided by making sure your fingers are always very dry. I think a little bit of knurling would've helped tremendously. That being said this razor does not use the standard threading so putting the head on a different handle is out of the question. I do happen to like this razor very much and it will stay in rotation for me. It would make an excellent travel razor as well and honestly if it wasn't for the handle/threading issue this would have 5 stars easily. Overall it's a great shave, comfortable, great fit, and very affordable. I would for sure recommend this to a friend.

My favorite DE open comb razor. Smooth, close shave is the norm with this razor. If I used only one DR razor, this is the one. It matches the shave of my R41 and Futur on setting 6, but needs less effort. The price is wonderful. By the way it is heaver than the Fatip Grande.
