I already have some naval jelly so I was going to give that a shot to remove the current rust, but would like to prevent this from happening again so any pointers would be appreciated.

I'm having the same problem. I think Dovo has a Quality Control problem or released a bad batch. If you read all the threads lately you will find a lot of Dovo issues...which is strange because I've always considered them great razors.

In my case I aquired a brand new unopened box Dovo, honed it up, and put it in my rotation. I didn't treat it any different than my other razors but within a couple weeks I started noticing water spots so I hit it with some Flitz. After a little over a month it started showing symptoms of pitting. I don't think the final polish on this razor was done correctly as there is no way it should start pitting after just a month.

With a new Dovo I would suggest oiling it before putting it away...at least every other time. I'm selling mine and looking for an older one.
