Well my Livi Takeda 7/8 arrived yesterday from Italy! Wow, massive beast compared to the Livi Regrind I had been using. But what a shave. I was a bit intimidated with the square point and size, but surprisingly, it seemed almost easier to use? I have a rather "contoured/chiseled" jaw line and have always had problems getting the blade in there, but with the 7/8 found it to be much easier. I'm in the Q for a RWilliams and need to figure out if I should go to 8/8 or something larger than 7/8? Thoughts, opinions? Geez, that's asking for it in this place....
