    Is this the Fatip Testina Gentile razor?

    It’s nice that it’s made out of plated brass. What do you like about this one in particular?

      That’s the one. I’m not an expert, but I think “Testina” might refer to the handle, and “Gentile” is the head.

      This model is my favorite of the ones I’ve tried (including Classic and Classic Slant). This is also my favorite handle of theirs that I’ve tried (including Piccolo and Lo Storto).

      I typically prefer milder razors, but not too mild. The Gentile is close to a Gillette Tech, but it’s arguably more efficient than a tech.
