There is absolutely nothing wrong with the Dovo Special in Tortoise 6/8. That is a fine razor and you won't outgrow it with experience. I have it, I use it and I get a great shave.
Others that you may consider are the Bismark in Black, Red or Bone. That was my second "new" razor and it is still a favorite.
Here is the bottom line. You just don't know enough yet to appreciate the nuance differences in grinds, and a lot of other features are window dressing.
IMHO - the tortoise is just a classy, old timey, vintage looking razor and gives a great shave to boot.
