Mastro Livi K720, 7/8 Full Hollow, Square Point​

For this business trip I initially decided to bring with me the latest Mastro Livi Inox 6/8 straight razor, but when I was packing, I thought that bringing two razors was even better. That's why I chose a carbon steel - a K720 - in order to double my enjoyment in shaving. This Mastro Livi K720 is just amazing and certainly meets my expectations: smooth, velvety and with a caressing touch so different from any stainless steel. Not to mention how I like its scales with this chequered tips, giving a lovely touch to box wood.​
