Comparing a few DOVO razors...
Hello,
Many of you may have seen my previous post, for those who haven't basically I am brand new here to SRP and am looking to begin learning the art of a straight shave. I am still heavily researching and reading up on every aspect of a straight shave and the products involved. Through my reading a name I am continuously seeing come up time and time again is DOVO brand. I have a few razors here that I am looking at, and wanted to know if anyone has any experience with any of them of could offer any advice on the razor itself or even other places to go through when it does come time for me to make a purchase.
I am listing them from the most inexpensive and up. As the price goes up with the razor is the quality going up or am I paying more for "bling"?
Carbon Steel Razors:
DOVO Blond- 65.00
VintageBladesLLC::Dovo...
DOVO Black Star- 100.00
VintageBladesLLC::Dovo...
DOVO Ebony Silver Steel- 100.00
VintageBladesLLC::Dovo...
DOVO White Bone Bismarck- 140.00 (Spike Point- what is the benefit to a spike point?)
VintageBladesLLC::Dovo...
DOVO Red Solingen- 140.00
VintageBladesLLC::Dovo...
Stainless Steel:
DOVO Ivory Micarta
VintageBladesLLC::Dovo...
I keep seeing this razor featured on almost every site I visit. I am assuming it must be a fairly popular razor not to mention it's obvious aesthetic beauty.
As mentioned, if anyone has any experience with any of these or could offer anything about them, their quality, and other places to purchase that would be incredibly helpful. I know I listed a lot there may not be any clear cut "this is better", I just want some direction and as to what my money is actually being put towards.
Cheers,
Josh
