Good afternoon, Gentlemen.

Name is Fred. I've been shaving with a Dovo Classic for about a month now.

I've not quite got the technique for all the facial nooks and crannys down but I'm progressing. Still cleaning up with the Atra. Getting some excellent shaves.

No major blood vessels have been opened, and I am imagining that as a good thing.

I've been alternating between two razors of the same type day-on/day-off, and am getting to the point where I recognize that these instruments will eventually require a touch-up honing/sharpening. I purchased a 4K/8K whetstone when I bought the razors, but I don't want to 'practice' on them, so I've also purchased a few cheap Kriegers and another more coarse whetstone to work up from.

I was looking through the forum and saw the thread about the "Best Cuts". Holy Crap.

I look forward to reading to learn and being a part of the forum.
