    It takes work to make it super shiny, and you have to make an effort to keep it shiny, but shinyness alone is nothing to go by.
    If I can't get a patina on the steel... poopy

    I shaved with my ATS34 olive wood last night I've not used it for months .. and it was the best shave I've had for a while .. I agree with thebigspendur , I've got other razors that shave just as well but when you have a livi in your hands ( I only have livi's so i can only I guess, any other of the guys customs also ) you know it's something special .. Even the mastro's regrind have a quality to feel to them imho .
    They are outstanding value for money & of course are outstanding shavers .

    Being a Security Forces veteran of the Air Force I should probably be offended by that. But when I got out, they truly were taking in just about anybody that was brave enough to sign the dotted line. Drug dealers, thieves, gang members and everyday thugs. I'm glad I got out when I did, they were driving me nuts.

    Speaking of disabled. How does one become retried Army? If you don't do it right you get to retry?

    Well, I got tired of re-retrying for 20 years so I called it quits. If you noticed, I live in San Antonio, so I see Americas' finest at Lackland AFB.
