Thread: My Mastro Livi 40th birthday experience

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!!!
Anyway, in case you wish to come to Perugia and visit Mastro Livi's workshop (and in that very moment you will understand how hard it is not to buy his whole shop! ) it will be my pleasure and joy to help you.
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!

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!

Happy belated birthday! I'm in complete awe of your experience, it almost feels like your there the way you describe it. I hope to one day have a similar experience. Thank you very much for sharing

Wow! What an awesome 40th!

Thanks for sharing. Some fantastic pics!
