Were they both honed by the same person? The easiest thing initially may be to contact that person and see if they can help isolate the issue as they would know best the state both razors were in when they were shipped back to you.

I don't own any Dovos personally but I'm sure plenty of people will read this who have owned them and may be able to offer any differences specific to the models you are using.

Hang in there and keep on shaving... It definitely gets BETTER!!! :-D
