Thread: My First Mastro Livi...

I just received this beauty from Straight Razor Designs. It is a Livi Regrind with Olive Wood Scales. Thanks Don and Lynn:

I was looking at that razor along with the one having Buckeye Burl scales. Being an ex-Ohio boy, the Buckeye got the edge.. I couldn't be more pleased with my 1st Livi razor either.

Enjoy the ride, errr shave.....

Very nice. I'd like one too. I just need to justify it to myself

I have one of these but with Snakewood scales! They're awesome shavers! Very smooth. I like the weighty feel and the stiffer grind! Have you shaved with it yet??

Pretty cool, and nice picture.

Go Blue!!! Ahh, not a huge fan, just did some of my schoolin' there. I liked the Buck-eye too.

Try finding a reason to justify it to your wife .....forgiveness is easier to ask for than permission

I haven't shaved with it yet. I actually finished my first restoration/complete hone to shave ready with a 6/8 W.H. Greaves and Sons. See it in the restoration gallery section. I got a BBS with no nics ...a little tug on the scratchies to remind me I am not a hone"miester". It will be interesting to shave with the Livi after my first restoration....Ooooohhhh, This is what it should feel like

I shaved with mine. After proper prep, was like a knife through hot butter.

My regrind has become the number 1 razor of my harem. Well, I really don't have the numbers for a harem of razors, but she is the best razor I've ever used. Smooth.
They no longer have the year on them?
