Thanked: 10Thanks for that link, and especially about the brushes. Would his cheapest badger brush be good, or should I spring for one of his best ones? I like what I hear about silvertip brushes. I just tried to lather with one of the walmart boar bristle brushes and it was kind of like scouring my skin off. Yeah those Dovo razors on the second page are pretty reasonable, and apparently he hones them before sending them out, so I could still start out with a guaranteed sharp razor. Nice. That is on my short list!
Okay, so it is a pretty safe bet that any Pakistan razor is not worth picking up, and same for all Chinese razors except the possible exception of the Gold Dollars? I have to admit I haven't read that entire thread... 51 pages! Must be pretty controversial! But I gather that just ordering one from ebay will be a total disappointment and the only hope of getting a good one is to get one doctored up by a pro. Well, that must cost nearly as much as one of those Dovos from the whipped dog site! I will give the Gold Dollar some thought but right now I am leaning toward the Dovo razors I think. Got to do some more reading on those Gold Dollar razors. Any idea what I should expect to pay for one all fixed up?
Thanks again, guys!
