No shaving today 
My weekend shaves! Smooth and very clean!
Worth to mention Filomatic products (most famous old Spanish brands), the excellent Weber and not less excellent Jabonman soap.
Cheers!

Mastro Livi "The Last New Grind", 6/8 Half Hollow, Round Point
Mastro Livi "The Last New Grind", 6/8 Half Hollow, Round Point
Today shave is dedicated to the endless talent of Mastro Livi and his art. Brush, strop and razor are all made by Mastro Livi and, by the way, the straight razor is very special. Not only for being a superb shaver, but also for the fact this is the very last new grind ever made by Mastro Livi, the one ending the glorious story of those seventy years old blades and brought to life by Mastro Livi. This is the razor I filmed in the video I made in which Mastro Livi tells the story of these blades and razor. By the way, the shave was superb, the brush super soft and pleasing, the lavender smell of Weleda soap was simply a lovely touch to this amazing shave.

Fantastic shave, no irritation, no blood, soft skin , excellent post shave .
I tried a lot of DE and finally the 34g is the best for me, close, soft, efficient
I tried a lot of soaps and MDC give me very good results every time.
Very satisfied with Plisson synthetic, 34g , super irridium, MDC and Myrsol Agua balsamica.
Have a good day
