Thread: Need Advice on a CL find

Hello everyone,

I need some advice from the gurus. I found a treasure, at least I think it is, on Craigslist. A Dovo Black Star with some pitting on the blade, case, and strop. Please check out the picture of the blade and let me know what you think. I am sending the payment out tomorrow morning first thing, so I am buying it, figuring even if the razor is junk I'll get a hard case and strop that I will need anyway.

I asked the seler how it shaves, if he thinks if the blade may have been rolled from being dropped or incorrectly stropped etc. If that is the case I plan on sending to Lynn for his services.

He claims it was only used 4 or 5 times....

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
