The new Fatip blades came in. The Fatip Grande pairs very well with them. I did two passes. One WTG and one ATG. It's a smooth as silk finish on the face and if I did a touch-up under the jawbone it would be the same there. I'm glad I got them I found them at The Razor Company and, as Wellinhome said, they are in packs of ten. It's not on the packaging but on the blade it reads "Stainless Ice Tempered "

Hello Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Gonna be in the 80's today with "feels like" temps in the low 90's. We're getting a little taste of summer so I decided to go with an orange theme for today's shave. Grooming Department's "Valencia" is an excellent soap with notes of (you guessed it) orange! Orange juice, orange peel, and orange blossom with additional notes of lemon, petitgrain and cedar. Smells delicious and the lather is phenomenal! Thick, yogurt-like consistency and extremely slick. Two passes (+ touch-up) and I finished with a splash of The Goodfellas' Smile "Orange Empire" AS (decanted into an antique Preston & Merrill's Extract of Orange bottle) and several sprays of Hermes "Terre d'Hermes" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

They are long lasting bladed a lot of shavetry the same blade for several shaves and see how good they are!
Thanks Lukewellinhome (I have your name correct this time [emoji2]).
I plan to change it to a different razor after today. It might be to another Fatip razor or maybe a different brand.
