What makes you say this? Just curious.

I actually know some folks that intentionally post false ads and pictures just to see if they can get away with this. When they get the money, they change their accounts up and reconigure their emails. These folks are my neighbors and have the attitude if people are dumb enough to fall for a scam, they dereserve everything they get. The day will come when they get what's coming to them and I'll just smile and wave at them as they are taken to jail.

If it seems too good to be true, then it's probably too good to be true.

Don't forget the W.C. Fields corollary to the Barnum theory: "Never wise up a chump or give a sucker an even break."

That thing looks like it fell off a cucoo clock.

I don’t think he even has a website anymore ...unless it’s listed under something other than mastro livi

Oh yea, "There's a sucker born every minute" This is the case here. Don't be fooled by this razor!

Eh, you will not see me talking disparagingly about other makers, but that razor really looks like a Livi, including the writing on the scales which was done with a burr tool like a dremel.
I am not seeing anything that would make me say it's not a Livi.

I concur. It definitely looks like Livi's razor. BTW, I personally own one of his, absolutely love it, and use it in my constant rotation (in spite of the fact it's one of the hardest to hone). Said this, I do think he has a lot of garish and crudely designed razors (to my personal taste of course - YMMV), and the OP's one fits right in with them.

The razor is real. Razorguy who was his business partner posted a SOTD on another forum back in 2017 with this exact razor.
Not really difficult to find, just google the razors name and you will find the picture.

You have to go to the livi knife business site his son runs, you can still buy razors and equipment through it.
