Mastro Livi Inox Grifone, 9/8 Full Hollow, Livi Snake Point
Yet another impeccable shave, yet another luxurious Mastro Livi razor. I must admit I like my RazorGuy Pre Shave Oil quite a lot and I can tell it adds pleasure to pleasure. Not to mention Mastro Livi Inox, super smooth yet effective, with no skin irritation at all. Then a refreshing splash of cold water added to alum block - a pleasure I forgot to use for such a long time and I am glad I am doing this again - my usual post shave oil and then a fragrant splash of this Evolution Ice Line aftershave. Just beautiful!​

Stirling Ozark Mountain today. 20 seconds to load the WD High Mountain. Great, easy, thick, lather. The Fatboy still has the Gillette Platinum in it. Great smooth, close, shave. I finished with Pitralon Classic.
