Mastro Livi Double Damascus San Mai, 15/16 Full Hollow, Barber's Notch

It is so hard to tell what is the Mastro Livi straight razor I like the most. Of course I like them all and each of them brings its own story, character and soul. And, of course, a truly personal and different shaving sensation. Mastro Livi carbon damascus is both beautiful and high performing, but I admit this san mai double damascus straight razor is even more special. Not only for the fact Mastro Livi engraved my name in the tang, but also for the fact I watched the whole making of this razor and it was "tailored" on my hand grip, something you can see in razor's spine and tang. This razor is very special to me. Scales too are breathtaking: they are made from a beautiful piece of amboyna burl with three colors, absolutely awesome. And I am sure of this: this Mastro Livi double damascus sanmai straight razor is a truly and excellent masterpiece. And it has my name in it.
