Maestro Livi 8/8 ATS34 Briar Olive

[Steelforge]

I posted this over at SRP but thought some folks here might be interested too.

After a brief worry at the weekend when the certifcate for my razor arrived without the razor, I came home from work today to find a package waiting for me.

After tearing it open, I was faced with this. A Maestro Livi 8/8 ATS34 razor, with worked back, and Briar Olive scales. Also 2 DVDs of the Maestro at work. The craftmanship is superb, and the attention to detail is very good too. On one end of the wooden box is a small version of the Briar Olive scales - presumably so when you have a large collection you can see from the outside of the box what's inside. :smile:

Thanks to both the Maestro and Lynn for making my day. :smile:

It shaves beautifully and is just the right weight, well for me at least. I ordered this purely on seeing photo's and on the Maestro's reputation, and I can confidently say that finances permitting I'll be ordering from him again in the future.

Here are some photo's, for you to look at. Now if you'll excuse me I have an urgent appointment with a pot of Proraso soap and a brush! :biggrin:

Bob,

I'll see it tonight. It's just frustrating to see little red x's. There were some razors offered for sale at SRP today I might have been interested in, but again, little red x's.

This razor is so beautiful!
If anyone is thinking of just putting one on the shelf, I would be happy to keep it warm and comfortable. I will promise to ensure that there is no rust and the edge is well maintained.
