Mastro Livi Club Razor & Shave Brush

Mastro Livi Club Razor and Shave Brush 2016 edition together at last! Monday I picked up my Club Shave Brush and this is the first time I am using it. Of course, the inauguration of this awesome brush had to be with his "club brother straight razor" and I could not make a better choice. This Mastro Livi Club Shave Brush is absolutely awesome and perfect, having a wonderful loft with a beautiful backbone that easily mounted a rich and luxurious lather out from the revered P.160 Professional shave soap. A memorable shave, done in my usual three passes, with impeccable hardware and software, amazing brush and razor, superlative soap and aftershave. An absolutely perfect shave!

Mastro Livi Grifetto 60, 6/8 Full Hollow, Round Point

For today's shave I chose my Mastro Livi Grifetto 60, the razor celebrating sixty years this renowned Italian artisan dedicated to straight razor. Mastro Livi in fact started working on straight razors in 1955, when he was fourteen and his father allowed him to hone his very first straight razor as he finally thought his son was ready to work on such a noble shaving tool. Mastro Livi learned the art of honing from his father since he was five and he divided his time between working on family's workshop and school. I am enjoying my Mastro Livi Club Shave Brush 2016 Edition very much indeed! It is the only shave brush I am using lately and I love it! Great super silvertip badger loft, beautiful and awesome look, absolutely fitting my hand with its perfect balance and weight. A champion in mounting the lather from Tabac Original Shave Soap, a shave ending with the elegant touch of Floïd Black.
