Hello everybody and thanks for accepting my registration to this forum. Also thanks to all of you who are reading my very first message in this forum.
I do live in in Perugia, Italy, the ancient city founded by Etruscans about 3000 years ago, the same city where Mastro Livi lives too, whom I am sure you all know about.
I am a big fan of Mastro Livi straight razors and I also own some of them: they certainly are the very best straight razors I have in my collection. I have the immense privilege and honor to personally know Mastro Livi, something which definitely changed my way of shaving, honing and maintaining a straight razor. He is always very patient to teach me everything I ask him about straight razors and maintenance. A real master!
I use straight razors and japanese kamisoris only, of which I am a passionate collector and restorer. I started using and collecting straight razors about seventeen years ago and, since then, they are the only razors I use for shaving. My collection currently counts 273 razors, of which 27 of them are Mastro Livi razors.
I also like making shaving soaps and after shaves as a hobby, including other shaving products, just for the fun of it and at home. Although I do this for my personal use - I occasionally give them to my friends who seem to like what I make - this is certainly something adding extra pleasure to the pleasure of traditional shaving.
I am certainly looking forward in sharing with you all a common passion.
Thank you all for reading this.

Best regards.

Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

razorguy,

Welcome to DFS.

I have only just discovered Mastro Livi. His store of knowledge is very impressive.
Although he only speaks Italian the sub titles are the best I have ever seen.
Everything, every thought he wants to impart is clear and lucid and to the point.
He is a special man and an excellent educator.

Enjoy DFS. Its a great place to hang out.

Mickey
