Hi ALL l!!l!
I've been using a Dovo 5/8 for about 10 yrs. I'm thinking I'm missing out not using a 5/8.
What should I do? What should I get?
Around $100 please.....more or less............

Hi and welcome to SRP ! If your asking if you should get the razor I would say absolutely. If your asking for $100.00 I would say I can't help you. :rofl2: Just kidding :D .Enjoy the forum and take a look at the SRP Wiki here. All kinds of good info in there.Quote:

I guess what I'd really like to know is: I'd like to buy a new 7/8" blade. What should I look for.
Thanks!
Look no further:

I own one and bought 2 more. It honed the 2nd one up today. Just like the first, it easily took an awesome edge.
Here's a recent thread about them:

and here's another where the razor receives high praise:

I look for what I like in the shape of the point, the grind and the type of scales. The last being cosmetic but that is something that I consider. I like a Spanish point better then a square point or round. I might be looking for a full hollow or perhaps something heavier. It all depends on your individual preference.Quote:
