Day 3
Today, I brought out the Dovo 6/8 Best Quality. This one came shave ready from Tony Miller along with my paddle strop.

I liked the heft of the heavier razor right away. The larger size seemed to make the blade angle a little easier to control. I also liked the rounded point.

The WTG pass went well. I did XTG and was still trying to work out the right angle of attack for that chin area when I touched the blade down wrong. Gash. Hoo-boy, that was a gusher.

To make matters worse, my wife heard me say "Ouch!" and turned to see the carnage. The styptic pencil had to work hard to close that one up. I might end up with a scar to show for that mistake.

Today's shave was the poorest of the three in terms of closeness. Basically no irriation, but not smooth.


Where to go from here
I'm putting the Dovo away for a week or two. I'm going to work with the 5/8 exclusively for a few days and see where I land.
