Thread: Greetings from New Jersey!

Hey everyone, my names Trevor and I have been attempting to shave with a straight razor off and on for about a year. Beginning with Dovo blade, and after I believe my attempts to strop and hone it ruined the blade, I decided to give up. Recently got a Hart Steel razor and am hoping to ask some questions here so I do not make the same mistake twice!

Welcome to SRP Trevor. I used to live in No. Jersey years ago. If you'll go to the SRP Library , which you can access in the toolbar menu above, you'll find the beginner's guide. Check out Lynn Abrams on the first straight razor shave and many other valuable tutorials.

Hi and welcome to SRP!

If you still have your dovo blade you may want to try sending it to one of the many honemiesters they may be able to get it back in shaving shape for you

Welcome to SRP. I'm also originally from No.Jersey, not too far from Jimmyhad.

Your Dovo may not be ruined. You should be able to find someone here who can help you with it.
