"At the end of day four i can safely say i love to shave like this. I am actually waking up excited about shaving and as dumb as it may sound it makes me feel a bit manly". James, I know what you mean! I'm new to straight razor shaving myself! That is totally how I feel about this! If you would like to, I have posted a thread yesterday titled my first 6 shaves. I'm also pround to say I have a new DOVO as well! Good luck with your DOVO James. STRAIGHT RAZOR 13
