Mastro Livi "Rasoio Italiano" Stainless Damascus, 8/8 Full Hollow, Spanish Point
I can't stop thinking how fabulous and stunning is this Mastro Livi stainless damascus razor. The blade, first of all. It is made of artisanal martensitic stainless damascus personally made by Mastro Livi in his laboratory, that is made of stainless steels suitable for hardening and tempering. You can in fact see both stainless steels are making the very sharp and super cutting edge, this is possible only in case the steel is totally hardenable. Secondly, the scales. They are a masterpiece celebrating Italy and Italian craftsmanship, of course made by Mastro Livi. Scales are made of black African ebony with a fossil mammoth ivory plate in the middle and two Italian flags at the sides. The flags are made of jade, white turquoise and coral. A flag made of three dots is also inlaid in the fossil mammoth ivory. Simply beautiful! As for shaving performance, the feeling of this Mastro Livi stainless damascus is pretty aggressive and deep, almost as aggressive as Damasteel, however giving a pleasing shave and, you know it, with an impeccable super smooth and velvety result. I am very proud of this razor, not just because it is "Italian artisan made", but also because I personally watched its making.

Great photos, gents.
The stronger, 'Tarkus' version has a half-puck of Aramis, half-puck of Williams, grated, mixed with 2 tablespoons of glycerin and heated in microwave 15 secs, pressed, 15 secs, pressed again, once more.Quote:

Sharptonn's recipe works wonderfully. My container even contained a prize, two army men action figures that Tom jammed into the concoction. When I opened the lid of the tub I laughed my self silly. :rofl2:

The edge on the razor was great and the shave was exceptional. I was near BBS after the first pass but did another just for fun.
