Felisatti is or was an Italian power tool manufacturer.
The current status an ownership confuses me at the moment.
I believe they were known as a “Professional” or possibly “Industrial” quality manufacturer.
In Italy, and maybe other areas of Europe, the Felisatti line of tools seems to gave been sold under the Felisatti brand name.
Outside Italy, the tools seem to have been sold under other brand names, or rebranded by various other power tool manufacturers.
Felisatti would also do OEM manufacturing, as well as modifying gheir products for other brands.
The Porter Cable 125 hand power planer was made by Felisatti.
I believe one or more Skil sanders( back when Skil still manufactured items in the USA and were “professional” quality) were also made by Felisatti.
The RT-1800 plunge router Fein used to sell in the USA was made for Fein by Felisatti, although I think with some Fein specific mods.
Lamello seems to have used some Felisatti parts, and maybe motors for some of their tools.
Basically, they were a quality manufacturer of durable tools for professional use.
You used to be able to by certain Felisatti branded tools in the USA from a couple specialty sources, I think hand grinders, and maybe wet grinders for masonry use.
The USA distribution seems to have been thru some company that distributed non tool related products in the USA that were made in Italy, maybe printing ink or something if I recall correctly.
About 10-15 years ago, a bunch of Felisatti branded tools turned up on Ebay at basically clearance prices. I think the tools were left overs in US voltage of stuff made for other manufacturers, but relabeled with Felisatti labels, like a back warehouse room full of surpluss or test samples got cleared out.
I think Felisatti got purchased by some Russian tool conglomerate at about the same time, and the conglomerate also purchased one of the Spanish power tool manufacturers, and the tool models got changed around, then refocussed for sale to the Russian market, possibly with the shutdown of the Italian manufacturing, and maybe the Spanish manufacturing, then a recession happened, and now when you go to the company’s website, the contact info is for a Chinese company called “ WELEE (SHANGHAI) INDUSTRY CO., LTD.”.
The website has English, German, Spanish, and Russian language options, so presumably the “brand” is still being sold in Europe.
I presume parts might also still be available from some sources in Italy if you can find them.

As far as blades go.
Euro sized blades can be found on Ebay, and sometimes Amazon.
There are usually sellers from Europe who will ship to the USA, although shipping prices can be high.
Unfortunately, Euro blade sizes seem to vary somewhat more than US typical blade sizes.
You will need the arbor diameter of the saw blade, and the Blade diameter as well.
Arbor adjusting rings seem to be somewhat common in Europe, so if all you can find is the correct blade diameter, but an arbor hole too large, you can usually usually find an arbor reducing ring to make the blade work, although arbor reducing rings would likely need to be found on Ebay as well.
When looking for a blade, Bosch, Freud, Makita, Leitz, Elu, and Dewalt, are brand names that usually work for decent blades in Euro sizes, at least shipped from Europe.
