Still on the Road, Still Enjoying My Mastro Livi RWL34 Razor

Still on the road and still enjoying this Mastro Livi RWL34 very much! I am very happy I have brought with me this straight razor and it is giving me exceptional shaves, smooth and with an impeccable BBS. Three passes of pure satisfaction for an irritation free shave and a super smooth skin. I have simply stropped this RWL34 razor on Mastro Livi travel loom strop - leather side, of course - followed by hand palm stropping and the razor was ready to give the best shave. The Omega Professional 48 shave brush did its usual excellent job in mounting a rich lather from the Negozio Leggero shaving cream. As usual, Pinaud Clubman aftershave delivers both a refreshing and spicy sensation. Great shave!
  • Pre-Shave: RazorGuy Pre-Shave Oil
  • Soap: Negozio Leggero Lavender Hazelnut Shaving Cream
  • Brush: Omega Bristle 48
  • Bowl: Chinese Bowl
  • Strop: Mastro Livi Travel Loom Strop and Hand Palm
  • Razor: Mastro Livi RWL34, 8/8 Full Hollow, Snake Point
  • Post-Shave: Alum Block
  • Post-Shave: Argan Oil
  • After Shave: Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla

Moss Anniversary Slate scuttle
Elite Razor Reclaimed Poplar Manchurian White 2-Band (24mm/50mm)
C&E Sweet Almond Oil shaving soap + shaving cream (both vintage)
DE Ink Edition AS-D2/Triad Copper Aristocrat
Personna Super Platinum Chrome (9)
RazoRock R-160 Sweet Almond aftershave balm

A wonderful sweet almond shave. At 75mm, the Triad handle is a little too short to be comfortable in my hand, but it certainly is handsome.
