So everyone says that razors from the factory are not shave ready although the DOVO site says they are and should not hone them. Well, If I knew how to post a photo of my face you could definitely tell-- IT IS NOT TRUE -- I have other Dovo's that were professionally honed and they are wonderful I received a Prima Klang in the mail yesterday and in the package was a copy of what DOVO says on their site so I said to myself SELF lets try it. Did not have a happy ending. Well there you have it my experience with a FACTORY SHAVE READY.
