I’ve become so enthused and interested in shaving because of geo. I find myself buying brushes to try out the different types, razors, blades, even lather bowls! I can honestly say I don’t feel bad or guilty about any of it either. This man has spread his love of shaving to myself and probably plenty of others. What once was a chore and boring task has now since opened my eyes to what some may call a forgotten art. I am never going back to a cartridge razors.
Hello Geofatboy how are you, I re started shaving with DE safety razors after seeing your videos around five years ago, now I eagerly wait for your video as your videos make me smile and laugh because of your good sense of humor which works like a medicine and rejuvenating after a long stressful day in the court 👍👍👍
Nice shave Geo💈💈 Never used a Fatip razor myself but they seem to do the job fine, look great and are reasonable in cost. Great products used in todays shave and a great video, thanks. See ya next time.
I find those shaving videos very relaxing, and trough them i started to shave on classic way...im using wilkinson sword classic de razor and gilette platinum blades now...hehe greetings from Serbia!
I just got a Fatip Grande OC and slanted models to test out. I really like them both. They are very close to the perfect touch if you handle them without too much pressure. I hate the curly handle on slanted (changed it to something else) but the gun metal handle has very nice feel a grip even if it is not textured. That is a manufacturer to try out if you have not yet.
That's a really nice looking razor. I don't usually go for gold tones, as I figure they'll wear off over time, but this one mixed with the gun metal color looks frikkin BOSS!
Geo, I had to chuckle at your blooper. You called it Margaritas in the Attic, rather than Arctic. :) I did order some though as I like a very cold shave myself, right down to rinsing my razor in ice water.
Hmm looks good Geo and at least you get a choice of blade guards giving you a little room to play with eh? Have you tried my pre-shave routine yet with Thayers witch hazel? am waiting to see what you think. Just to remind you - wet face apply a splash of Thayers witch hazel plus some either Edwin Jagger pre-shave lotion/cream or Proraso pre-shave work into beard/whiskers leave while you are lathering up and then shave. Oh and finish off with the alum block then some more Thayers witch hazel of course, and then finish off with your choice one of aftershave I don't use any myself as I love the smell of the Thayers medicated witch hazel which fortunately I bought a stock of before they stopped making it, but plain Thayers is ok.
Bic blade in Fatip...?? Hmm .. A dangerous alliance for me.. The maximum that I can afford with this razor only Rapira, Voskhod. But there is a temptation to try and Bic now))
That's a handsome safety razor. The spec says mild or aggressive. Can you give me a comparison to which Rockwell 6S plate would be closest to a mild (closed comb) and aggressive (open comb) shave?
Hi Geo! Here's a tip from a FaTip user. Regulate the aggressiveness of the razor by taking advantage of the thin cap pins and the blade wiggle room. Having one side more exposed grants a more aggressive shave, useful for removal of the bulk of the stubble, and leaves a much gentler side for touch ups or more delicate areas! Tell me what you think about this tip Have a great day! Awesome video!
Glad I found your comment. Recently broke the handle on a Parker butterfly that had the perfect aggressiveness that I like, and I'm seriously thinking about getting this one
gio is it okay to make a lather inside the shaving soap package? like the circle housing where the soap puck sits? i don't have a bowl but i can use a coffee mug if i have to?
How does this compare to the muhle r41 in terms of aggressiveness and efficiency? I've read in multiple forums that its as aggressive as the r41 but way smoother. Now that you probably used both, I'm quite interested in how these two compare.
I really wish I could just buy a Fatip base plate. I have most Fatip razors, but all of them are open comb. I really don't want to buy the sam razors again to get one piece.
I feel the Shark blades are as good as the Feather and waaaay cheaper... also quite cheaper than the Bic... As for the Fatip... definitively my kind of razor (retro grande open comb in my case)... But be aware that parts of the gun metal finish on the head often comes off even with good care...
HATE that Bic blade. Used it once and cut myself worse than ever. Super bad cut on my chin. Still skared 2 weeks later. Super pissed. Never again. Shark and Personna have done me good.
As a Greek I would say it looks like a Corinthian style to me 😊 Nice video, greetings from Thessaloniki

Geo, it's Margaritas in the ARTIC 😄.
ARCTIC 😁
I'm still thrilled about the shoe tie technique you shared recently! Revolutionary! Thanks!
Attic sounds even better than Arctic :D Sterling, are you listening;)
😂😂😂you are unbelievable man, you make my day 😂😂😂

Great video Geo!
All the best!
Geo you''re a hard working man. God bless you bro.
Nice shave Geo💈💈 Never used a Fatip razor myself but they seem to do the job fine, look great and are reasonable in cost. Great products used in todays shave and a great video, thanks. See ya next time.
I love Fatip razors, I have the Grande OC, Gentile and Lo Storto OC. They are pretty much the only razors I use now.
Fatip is a razor with an Italian soul, I love it, also if it's not perfect and almost artisanal🪒👍
I have a Fatip Lo Storto slant bar/open comb combo, it is by far my favorite razor.
Geo shouting out the column styles. My man!
Nice shave! Beautiful razor!
BIC blades are even sharper in the 2nd and 3rd use, but really smooth!
The historical architecture flex made me laugh 😂
Thank you Geo from 🇬🇷 Γεια σου!!
I find those shaving videos very relaxing, and trough them i started to shave on classic way...im using wilkinson sword classic de razor and gilette platinum blades now...hehe greetings from Serbia!
Glad you liked the BICs! 😎
My morning shave was with the piccolo, nice little razor

Enjoyed the video Geo

Excellent shave Geo, I thought since you were using a razor from Italy you were going to use Proraso for your shave cream. The razor is a beauty:)
Great looking razor
That opening is so dope!
Stay tuned-you might see it again!
Good stuff! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I really like your videos ❤️❤️keep going geo love you from iraq 😘
!!!...DORIC ORDER...!!! NICE VIDEO!
I got this one a few months ago and find the handle too thin , short and light , I tried it with the alpha super grip on and man it’s great
I believe it’s margaritas in the Arctic
Ha Ha!!!!!!!!! Margs in the Attic would be HOT and COLD!
Maggie Rita's in the greenhouse...... whatever.....

Hi geo i have a great idea how about shave bowl and shave brushes with checkured nurling to have a grip even when soaking wet
Geo, did you ever re use the blade you sharpened with glass?
And how about carring cold fushion shave soap plus the cold fushion after shave

Hey I have a question I really would like answered, no matter how many passes I always have a mustache shadow what am I doing wrong?
Now if I could use a straight razor like Geo, I'd be in a good spot

@@jasonvoorhees895 you're welcome! The fatip is indeed a great little razor
He said he opened it up and said woo that looks pretty sharp 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No pun intended 😎🤔😎
Used to have one of these shipped from Italy and loved it til one of the posts detached from the top cap. My favourite open comb very nimble
Thank Matteo!
@@geofatboy love your content Geo been watching for years from Australia 👍also not knocking Fatip just a bit of bad luck with a Picolo would buy again
I hate to play the role of editor Geo. But it's arctic not attic. Lol. Great video.
gio is it okay to make a lather inside the shaving soap package? like the circle housing where the soap puck sits? i don't have a bowl but i can use a coffee mug if i have to?
You can load your brush with the soap in the package and face lather or use a coffe mug or a bowl. Its about how you prefer to lather
Thanks for the nice vid. Two questions: 1) Which is the MOST AGGRESSIVE Fatip razor? 2) How does it compare to the R41? Thanks again.
I had the same question.
Bic Greek !!

Cool brauh your greek and you speak it, i love meeting people from differnt countries and races im mexican but im glad im born in california usa🥳🤯

Thanks for sharing. Good stiff. Blades are always YMMV.
Did you fasten up the intro?
in the ATTIC haha
Would you say you can comfortably shave daily with the open comb?
Sure can.
@@geofatboy That’s great! Thanks Geo.
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌💯
👍❤️👍
HATE that Bic blade. Used it once and cut myself worse than ever. Super bad cut on my chin. Still skared 2 weeks later. Super pissed. Never again. Shark and Personna have done me good.
Revisit the Bic at a later date. You probably got a bad blade.
Special buy ,limited edtion, limited or rare thats what i buy
