Welcome!
DOVO's are great shavers when properly honed, but a lot of sellers don't sell them honed to their full potential.
They come from the factory honed on a grinding wheel and stripped, where's they need to be honed by hand on a series of stones to get the best out of them.
If you'd like me too I can hone yours up for you pro bono, just drop me a PM if you're interested!
The other thing that will affect the shave is the pre shave prep with the lather and hot towels, and a good stropping. What soap and strop are you using? What do you do for pre shave prep?
Also check out the wiki and other articles linked in my sig line, they'll be very helpful in answering your questions.
Anything you can't find just ask and you'll get an answer in no time!
Good luck and keep us posted!
