    Default Newbie here...

    Hi!

    I've bought one Dovo 42 Fritz Bracht (I think it is 4/8'')... My other 5/8'' is on its way, but there is something I'd like to know...
    How approx. this Dovo is old? Does anyone knows origins of Dovos 42?




    Photos were taken with my phone, so excuse me for low quality...

    welcome

    yes it looks like 4/8, you can measure it and know for sure.
    don't know the age, i believe they were doing this stamping since the 40's, but I don't know for how long. i believe the scales are indicative of a bit later period. some of the more experienced guys may know.

    That is a nice looking dovo. I'm sure someone on here can shed some light on an appx age for you. Enjoy that little shaver!

    Hey guys, I am new to forums and don't know where to place a new post. I am wondering if someone could help me. I am wanting to know if Kriegar Stainless Steel Razors were any good. I'm wanting to buy a razor but don't know what to look for. Please give me suggestions as to square edge or rounded or stainless or carbon.

    Thanks.

    Welcome MrGentleman! Can't help i'm afraid, but nice razor all the same.

    Birdy
    They're carp i'm afraid. Do not buy them to shave with.
    Searches should throw them up if you want to know more.
    Probably shouldn't ask here though as it's a bit of a hijack.
