Mastro Livi Perugia 13.12.14, 15/16 Full Hollow, Spanish Point

I know I said this already, but I absolutely love this new Mastro Livi stainless steel, the very same he uses for the making of Grifetto. This straight razor is however special in many regards, it was made by Mastro Livi in a very limited edition and especially created for the first meet up in Perugia organized for the members of rasando.it, an Italian forum about shaving and of which have been made three exemplars only. Hence the name of the razor: "Perugia 13.12.14", as this meet up took place last 13 December 2014. Stunning shaver for an impeccable result.

Pre-Shave: Proraso Green Pre-Shave Cream
Soap: Negozio Leggero Hazelnut Oil and Lavender Shaving Soap
Brush: Optim'Hom Synthetic Brush J082
Bowl: Chinese Cheap Bowl
Strop: Mastro Livi Loom Strop and Hand Palm
Razor: Mastro Livi Perugia 13.12.14, 15/16 Full Hollow, Spanish Point
Post-Shave: Argan Oil
After Shave: RazorGuy Bay Rum Aftershave
