Thank you! I am very happy with this new razor! Damascus pattern is amazing, with a "wood pattern" making a perfect match to the pattern of the scales. Not to mention how I like juniper scales! It has such a pleasing aromas and it seems to smell juniper berries or some delicious and yummy stew Umbrian style! (Yes, here in Umbria we use juniper berries in cooking not to mention for making absolutely fine liquors!)
However I admit the picture don't do justice to the beauty of the scales. They have a finer and smoother shade, from pale ivory to red. I thought it was a perfect match with this dark Damascus steel. Love it!
Agree 100%. Mastro Livi is a master in his craft. He made an extra hollow ground and he completely made that by hands! Just a grinding wheel and bare hands!!! To me it is amazing how he can possibly do that just by hands, but I know and can tell he does! I guess the thickness of the blade is even thinner than a double edge disposable blade. A work of talent, art and pure craftsmanship! Mastro Livi rules! :tu
