If it is really shave ready, I suggest you shave with it. If it feels better, then you have a problem in honing or stropping your Dovo. If it feels the same as your Dovo, then I suspect you have a problem with your shaving technique (or it was not shave ready).
Perhaps some others can provide better advice, I am still new.
