Still Traveling with Mastro Livi Last New Grind

Still on the road and still shaving with this magnificent Mastro Livi "Last New Grind". And my shaving soap, of course. This razor is really amazing: not just a masterpiece to look at, but also an exciting blade with a very long story to tell and brought to life by Mastro Livi. Most of you probably know Mastro Livi "New Grind" straight razors were made by using a stock of blanks he bought from Paolo Fazzini "Pinin" and which story is partly unknown. The blanks were certainly made in the 1930s or in the beginning of 1940s and never used by the original owner for making straight razors. Mastro Livi bought the whole stock - consisting of some hundreds of blanks - tempered and ground, giving them a full hollow grinding, and then sold all over the world. It is always so nice to shave while holding in your hands important pieces of history just like this one, which is also the "last one" of the very long series of Mastro Livi "New Grind" straight razors.
  • Pre-Shave: RazorGuy Pre-Shave Oil
  • Soap: RazorGuy Shaving Soap
  • Brush: Sephora Badger 491
  • Bowl: Chinese Bowl
  • Strop: Mastro Livi Loom Strop and Hand Palm
  • Razor: Mastro Livi "The Last New Grind", 6/8 Half Hollow, Round Point
  • Post-Shave: Alum Block
  • Post-Shave: Umbrian Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • After Shave: Floïd The Genuine
