    Default 28 year old Dovo Bismarck 6/8

    This was the second razor I owned . I gave it to my twin brother about 27 years ago. He decided straights were not for him so he used it to trim feathers when he was fletching his arrows. We both forgot about this one until he was clearing out some old archery kit to sell.
    He decided to give it back to me its now about 5/8 with a frown towards the heal.
    I breadknifed the frown out of the heal &reset the bevel .
    Then made it shave ready & tightened the pin up .
    I will give this a flight tomorrow morning.
    Here's the pics .
    The razor its pictured against is a new Dovo 6/8 best quality.
    The final pics I've tried to show the new larger bevel.
    It took a good edge so it should be a great shaver .
    I'm christening this one my Lazarus blade.
    Cheers Guys
