    Default second razor

    have put in a bid on a second razor to give me a reference against the other and to have one inox and one carbon steel of about the same type to compare. my inox is a new Dovo 5/8 round point with the ice swirls. What do you guys reckon the value of this shaver to be?

    If you think it is alright please don't outbid me on it Planning to send it to lynn for a professional honing so I can compare apples to oranges at least.

    I am really excited about straight shaving and I thank everyone for their help! This is a great group for sure.

    We can't give valuations here (if that's what you're asking) but it's a nice looking razor from what I can tell. Pics aren't the greatest though.

    A side note, if you don't want people to bid, don't post the ebay link until after you win remember that people who aren't members can browse the forums too!

    Edit: Be careful with that gold wash if you win, it comes off very easily if you polish over it or look at it wrong!

    I had checked the classifieds but most of the razors that were not sold looked like square end and I am looking for something 5/8 and round to be similar to what I have already for comparison.

    Someone bid the bullocks right off me... I drew the line at $200 and thought it was a sure bet. Probably not worth that much though, but would'a loved to win.
