Not really that autumnal, but this has been my setup all week. The NDC Superspeed and the the Ferox are recent hand-me-downs from my dad. Really enjoying both of them.

Razor - 1912 ER (Made in England)
Blade - Gem
Soap - Wickham SS Dandyism
Brush - Custom Badger
Edt - Custom Blend PP

I am really enjoying these SE razors, the shave from them is incredibly close. Mrs said that my face feels smoother than a cashmere woo tang! I don't know what a woo tang is, but she is right, it is very smooth. :)

Hey Friends,

just endet my fantastic Sunday shave.

Soap: Cold River Soapworks "Fall"Limited Edition
Brush: Scott Pavkovich 26mm Silvertip
Razor: iKon Shavecraft 101
Blade: Astra SP
Aftershave: CH Pitralon

What a shave. The soap is very good. The scent is definetly great for this time of the year and is a wonderful combination with the Swiss Pitralon.

I can't praise the brush high enough. It is so fantastic. Creates tons of outstanding, thick, yoghurt like lather. Fantastic!!!

A picture will follow later.

So i hope that everyone of you will have a great time and fantastic shaves.

Greetings
Thorsten

Mastro Livi Grifetto, 6/8 Full Hollow, Round Point
Ladies and gentlemen, Mastro Livi Grifetto! This is the latest Mastro Livi creation and it is supposed to replace the old "new grind", now discontinued because he finished the blanks for making it. Also this new Grifetto will be made from blanks, just like the "new grind", but in this case blanks are personally made by Mastro Livi. It is however a different razor from the "new grind" as "Grifetto" is made from stainless steel. Not to mention, it shaves wonderfully!​


  • Pre-Shave: Myrsol Emulsión
  • Soap: Tabac Shaving Soap
  • Brush: Mastro Livi Silvertip Badger Brush, Madagascar Ebony Handle
  • Bowl: Gerby Bowl
  • Strop: Mastro Livi Loom Strop and Hand Palm
  • Razor: Mastro Livi Grifetto, 6/8 Full Hollow, Round Point
  • Post-Shave: Umbrian Extra Virgin Olive Oil
