    Default Dorko $30 what do you think ?

    Hi All,

    Any comments on this Dorko, no idea of blade size but guessing 6/8.

    I might be able to get it for $30 ?.

    Notice the spine file jimps / workedback.

    for $30 I would go for it...blade size is around 6/8 I think as well. Definitely unique enough, doesnt look like it needs much work to me...though Im no expert.

    That's way too much to pay for that blade, Gary. What a rip-off! Give me the seller's e-mail because I want to give him a piece of my mind for trying to get that much money for an ugly-arse no-shavin' Dorko.

    Does he have any more?

    Unfortunately, I don't own a "working" Dorko (and I haven't gotten around to finishing the one I got from you). On the plus side, I've honed a couple for other people, and find them to be among the best shavers I've ever messed with. Very close to Puma, in fact. If you can pick up a nice one for less than $50, you're getting a steal.

    I own 3 Dorko's and just won another on ebay. They are really great razors. I have a 4/8, 5/8 6/8 and 15/16. For $30 it is well worth it.
