Love this razor,"found" it NOS and it takes a nice edge, reminds me of a Dovo Löwenbräu, but with both nicer blade design and scales . Forgot the makers name, even though I found it once (a year ago, or so. There´s a crown on the blade and the text "our best hollow ground").

Mastro Livi CarboInox, 6/8 Full Hollow, Barber's Notch

Top shave! Take a superb Mastro Livi CarboInox straight razor, then a Mastro Livi Silvertip Badger Brush and load it with a high class shaving soap like Martin De Candre. Lather your face with the most luxurious lather you can think of and let Mastro Livi CarboInox razor slide on your skin like a feather. Rinse well with cold water and then pass alum block: no burns, no stings. Take just five drops of argan oil and spread them all over your face, let it absorb and then a generous splash of Floïd Vigoroso aftershave: how can you possibly think about a better shave? By the way: also my pre-shave oil was part of the shave and it certainly contributed to the picture, although being a homemade product, it did a good job anyway.
