The Goodfellas Smile Syntesi
The The Goodfellas Smile Syntesi safety razor, crafted in Italy, stands out for its durable build and sleek aesthetics. Made from either 303 stainless steel or aluminum, and finished with either a hard chrome or black and silver anodization, it appeals with a modern design comparable to the sleek lines of a sports car. Its 45-degree shaving angle is optimized for an effective and versatile shave, capable of handling facial hair and more sensitive areas alike.
Although the Syntesi is noted as slightly aggressive, which offers a closer shave, it might be challenging for beginners or individuals with sensitive skin. The clever integration of a fiber washer in the handle to prevent scratches exemplifies the attention to detail in the razor’s design. However, at a weightier 98 grams for the stainless steel version and a handle length of 80mm, the razor offers a solid feel but may not satisfy those who prefer longer and lighter options. Its large drainage holes are a practical feature for easy cleaning mid-shave. Overall, the The Goodfellas Smile Syntesi gains recognition as a durable, attractive, and effective tool for experienced shavers seeking a substantial piece of craftsmanship.
