Stirling Ozark Mountain today. Superb soap & scent! I loaded the WD brush for 40 seconds and got enough lather for 3+ passes. Israeli Viking’s Sword in the Slim. Great smooth, close, nick free shave. I finished with Pino Silvestre.

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!​

  • Soap: Tabac Shaving Soap
  • Brush: Mastro Livi Silvertip Badger Brush, Madagascar Ebony Handle
