Mastro Livi Damasteel Ladder, 6/8 Full Hollow, French Point​

Today's shave has been a combination of very good elements and gave me a luxury and very satisfactory shave. Starting from the very good soap made by Aguzzeria del Cavallo (it seems they are not making this soap anymore, what a pity) a classic Italian almond scented soap giving a stable and very effective lather. I guess this was also thanks to the Mastro Livi super silvertip badger brush, a champion in mounting lather to perfection. Not to mention the straight razor. I really like the ladder Damasteel of this razor's blade, a sort of mesmerizing pattern perfectly matching to the pattern of buckeye burl scales. The razor gave me a super smooth shave and the icing on the cake was the refreshing and invigorating effect of my Bay Rum, made from real pimenta racemosa leaves and real dark rum.​

• Pre-Shave: RazorGuy Pre-Shave Oil
• Soap: Aguzzeria del Cavallo
• Brush: Mastro Livi Silvertip Badger, Makassar Ebony Handle, 26mm Knot
• Bowl: Bamboo Bowl
• Strop: Mastro Livi Medium Loom Strop "Coramella Italiana" and Hand Palm
• Razor: Mastro Livi Damasteel Ladder, 6/8 Full Hollow, French Point
• Post-Shave: Alum Block
• Post-Shave: Argan Oil
• After Shave: RazorGuy Bay Rum

Love the blade on that razor!

Crowne & Crane Thuringian Forest today. 20 seconds to load the WD Silvertip. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette “Spoiler” SS still in the Gillette Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close shave. I finished with RR Tuscan aftershave.

Bob

Great lighting in this shot, Bob. I don't recall seeing that type handle from Whipped Dog; lovely brush.

SOTN 22-01-17
Williams and Arko Soap
Bristle Brush Van Der Hagen
Nippon craft razor 6/8
After shave La Toja
I obtained excellent foam, with this brush that does not loose hair as frequently mentioned of the mark. The craftsman razor made with Hamon technique, is a beauty and has a precise and smooth cut. A little abandoned the after, I was in the corner, I always enjoy it very much. I slept like a baby.
