    Default New Dovo

    Okay, it's day...heck, I don't even remember any more... 25? My new Dovo Silver Steel with ebony scales arrived from SRD yesterday. Thanks for the quick shipping guys! It's a beaut:



    It is one very sharp puppy. Arm hairs were just flying off! Interestingly, I didn't get a very good shave from it this morning, but I think that may have been due to changing a few other variables. I'm going to go back to the regular routine tomorrow, but using the Dovo as the only variable.

    Here's the collection now. The Dovo, the Heljestrand Mk. 31 (crummy aftermarket scales, but what a shave!), and the King Razor "Duke". It's kind of an accidental collection: the Duke came from the classifieds here, the Mk. 31 was an antique store find, and I just had to take advantage of the SRD "lifetime hone" offer. I think I'd better stop while I'm ahead!

    I'd be interested in your results. I am considering a new razor in the not to distance future.

    Do you mean the Dovo? I ask because I clearly don't have knack for shaving with it, and could use some advice.

    I shouldn't even be thinking this, but I have my eye on a Solingen at the same antique store where I got my Heljestrand. You know, before I got into this, I don't think I had ever set foot in one of those places.

    Curse antique stores and their seductive ways!
