Thanks for your comment and appreciation for my video. As for the problem you mentioned about music playing during credits, I tried to play the video and everything seems to be fine, with full audio and music tracks in the places where they are supposed to be. Can you please try playing the video again and let me know whether everything is fine? Thank you.Quote:

I decided to buy the small one, because I think it perfectly fits in my bag and I can carry it with me while I am traveling.
This strop is simply wonderful, not only because it comes with an elegant wood box and a crayon of Mastro Livi's chromium oxide paste, but for the beauty of the object itself, another masterpiece of Mastro's craftsmanship and art. Stropping on this loom strop, well, it is simply amazing for the feedback you get at each pass.
I am posting some pictures and I hope you gentlemen will enjoy it as much as I did.

I did watch the video. It was great, thanks for posting that! Oh yes, I saw the other razors posted also. The one by Razorthin as well as your Kamisori. Beautiful pieces, all of them. Thanks for sharing!
Got my Floid a couple weeks ago......great stuff...my youngest son is now using it too !!!
Floïd is my favorite after shave since the beginning I got into straight razor, a little more than ten years ago. I love both of the Italian production (The Genuine "Orange" and "Blue") and I find them to be absolutely wonderful! It is not always easy to find it (some time ago it was said they quit production and was not easy to find it in shops, blue in particular) and also now not all of the shops sell it.Quote:

As we are in a thread in which we are talking about "My Mastro Livi" (therefore talking here about Floïd would be considered as off topic by moderators ;) ) I can say Mastro Livi too uses Floïd and it has been quite a surprise for me to know about it. Mastro likes Floïd "Blue" as well as p.160 shaving cream: well, they both are my favorite ones, too! :)
As for your son using Floïd, I think this is absolutely great: it is always good to get used to good stuff when you are young. You will certainly grow up better! :tu
And this makes me think whether your son is using a straight razor or not, maybe a Mastro Livi, in order to follow the "get used to good stuff" rule? :)
He has a DE, brush and likes the cella soap...not crazy about the straights yet..Clubman is his other favorite.
I really enjoyed watching your videos, razorguy.
