Got a slight smile to it, right?

Some pitting on the spine, but nothing worth taking off all that metal.

Suuuper Wedgey. However, there appears to be a slight hollow grind on the blade, which is gonna make honing alot easier. The edge has no nicks or pitting, so it seems to be a great restore project.

My daily shaver. Dovo Best Quality. Honed by Utopian and has a GREAT edge on it. Gives a newb like me a super BBS shave ATG. I can't complain at all.

Dovo, Henry Nicholson & Sons and WF Greaves & Sons


The Nicholson and Greaves were bought on the bay and seem to be pretty good aquisitions. The Nicholson was pretty sharp, but nowhere near shave ready. I honed it and finished it on a chinese natural, but lost the edge after stropping....so I'm assuming I'm gonna need to set the bevel. The scales on the Greaves were in deplorable condition and not even worth restoring. Right now I'm looking to get a custom set, probably from someone here.

Not bad for someone who's been shaving a little over a month?
