Yeah, happy late birthday from me, too. That is a very beautiful set you have there. That wood is just amazing!
Those pics are great too—really nice to see exactly what goes on!
One of these days, probably for a 'big' birthday too, I'd love to go and do this—I know that it comes highly recommended by Antonello, and that he's also a very willing and clearly a very generous host, as well! (I'm surprised that he hasn't bought the whole of Mastro Livi's shop yet!)
Thanks to both of you for all the photos and videos you've provided over the last few months, and also for the encouragement to embark on such an experience.

The reason why I have not bought the whole Mastro Livi's shop is that, well, my finances would have quite a hard time and, well, you know what I mean! But I wish I could!!!

Once again, it has been a real pleasure to help Jody with his birthday gift and, even more, to have met him in flesh: it was great to share my passion with someone as passionate as I am.
I hope to meet you in Perugia soon, PigHog!Birnando likes this.The RazorGuy - StraightRazorChannel on Youtube and Google+

Thanked: 1694 My Mastro Livi 40th birthday experience
What an absolute stellar way to celebrate your 40th!
Seeing the Mastro at work like this, and to end up with such a beautiful razor, must have been such a pleasure.
Congrats on your birthday, that wonderful experience and with some superb looking handmade tools.
And thanks for taking the time to put such a great thread together for us all to see.
Great stuff!Last edited by Birnando; 10-06-2013 at 08:42 PM.
