Best place to get a Dovo in Canada?

[GrumpyCat]

Can anyone give me a suggestion or recommendation on where to get my first razor in Canada? Online, or local around the Ottawa area. I'm thinking the Classic Dovo 5/8 in black is the best choice for me. Or if there are other suggestions, I'd be glad to hear. Or if someone is willing to sell a used razor at a fair price to a new member, I'd also be glad to hear from you. Thanks!

Classic edge is good when they're in stock. Also SRD but the shipping is pricy from the states.

The Classic Edge Shaving Store Your Straight Razor Specialists. would be my recommendation as well.

I think Knifewear has a store in Ottawa. They are primarily knife guys, but some have are decent with a razor. Or just check the classifieds here.

I've been doing some searching, and here is what I've come up with ($129 factory-sharpened only) Dovo Razor Carbon 5/8 Half HG Black Synthetic | House of Knives ($139 honed but sold out) Dovo 5/8 Straight Razor Black ($140 factory-sharpened only) DOVO "Best Quality" Straight Razor 5/8", Black Handle | Shaving

I do not know who hones the razors for Fendrihan but I have had razors honed by Phil from Classicedge and can say the edges are very good. Personally I would not buy a new razor with a factory edge if I did not know how to hone a straight razor. It seems like it is almost down to the flip of a coin if the factory edge is really shave ready. If it is not shave ready you will have a miserable first experience of a shave and will have to send it out for honing anyway. Personally, I would wait for Phil to have what you want in stock. As a bonus Phil offers a free second honing.
