Proud new owner of a Dovo razor

Thanks to an early Christmas present from my girlfriend, I am now the proud owner of a Dovo Special razor with tortoiseshell handle.

I began looking into getting a razor and accessories earlier in the year to neaten the edges of my beard. I've been researching and trying to wean what I can from experienced shavers, when suddenly this appeared for me :)

I have to say, I am quite impressed with its edge out of the box. Yes, against a lot of good advice I couldn't resist the urge to try it out, and it did a great job. However, in the box is where it will now stay until I can get it honed and can get my hands on a strop (I'm already arranging to hone it now).

I'm very happy with my new acquisition. Now I know what I'll be doing when my future daughter brings home her first boyfriend; I'll be shaving ;)

That's a nice Shelia you got there :w

Since your in Oz's territory I do hope you'll be sending that DOVO to him. Trust me you won't be disappointed.

That's a nice girlfriend you've got there!
May I ask where she bought the razor?

Thanks Cudarunner :) by 'nice Shelia' do you mean the girlfriend or the razor?

I'm in touch with Oz. I'm taking it out to him for honing, and I'll wean all I can from him while I'm there

As far as I'm aware, she bought it from Men's Biz in the Sydney Strand

I of course was referring to the lovely lady that gifted you you're early Christmas Present. :chapeau

My mate Oz won't steer you wrong! Take a video recorder with you for further references. :tu
