Thread: Is my DOVO Authentic? Help!

Hello fellow members.
I'm trying to ascertain the authenticity of a "DOVO SOLINGEN STRAIGHT RAZOR #41" that I had purchase online.
There are several issues that have raised my concern; "gold-leafing is a bit off on the blade, the serration's/jimping on the bottom of the tang have been improperly ground/ inconsistent, the blade shape is tapering from 18mm to 17mm, a full 1 mm! ( not parallel ) with the top spine. The bottom spacer is not flush to the handle scales.
I feel that this piece could either be a factory second or a clever reproduction.!
I need your wisdom and feedback.
Thanks everyone.
