Custom Fancy Dovo on eBay!
For anyone interested, I posted my customized Dovo on eBay. It is a 5/8" Inox blade with custom file work on the spine, customized 3pin scales, with reinforced double-collar pinning at the pivote pin, a silver-metal middle spacer. Also the pin work has no ''nail head' ends, but has been pinned the same on both sides. This had been my 'traveling razor' but I honestly don't travel that much, so it really has not been used that much at all!

Any questions, feel free to ask!

Thanked: 4942Was this one customized by you Chris or did someone else do the work after you bought the razor?
Thanks,
Lynn

Hey Lynn,
The file work was done after I had bought the razor (by custom knife maker Dave Thompson - the same guy that did the deep file/spine work on the 8/8 Henckels Bill Ellis made custom scales for). The original scales (stainless steel) were removed (long story - short, they were used as liner's for another set of scales), and I replaced them with the Dovo Faux tortise scales. Removed all pins so that they would match on both sides (peened/polished heads), double collared the pivote pin on both sides (similar to Puma razors) and added the third metal middle pin/spacer.
The Razor was set up as my 'travel razor' in which I would not have to worry about the blade and scales. But, I really do not travel much. I'd say I might have used this razor less than 15 times, total.
