    As some of you have stated, I too have a 5/8th round point Dovo Str8 in "Best Quality" AND with genuine white plastic handle!! love it!! I bought it new from SRD about 2 years ago and only have had to hone it up once, not bad. Always gives a great BBS, very smooth.

    Have a great BBS and lots' O' fun!

    tinkersd of SRP!!

    I have three Dovos in my rotation.
    2 "en vogue" Black Micarta
    1 "Prima Klang" in Violet wood

    They are excellent shavers.

    I started razor shaving with a 6/8" Dovo Best Quality. A very nice starter one. Them I "won" a 5/8" Inox ebonywood scales. Nice razor too. Here a pick.




    Before this I found this other one, somewhere in Praha.


    Now I'm only interested on 6/8" or more, so my eyes are for the Special Tortoise, Bismarck o Renaissance.


    Salu2.

    I started with Dovo Shavette and graduated to the Dovo Bismarck 5/8" Spike Point from SRD

    I only have one Dovo (so far lol), the Best Quality 6/8 with black plastic scales. It's my favorite straight razor.

I got it brand new in an unopened factory box, lapped it on my balsa lap strop (also from Whipped Dog) and put it to the leather and it is smooth. Now I am sure with a professional hone it will improve far beyond my medial skills, but I am very impressed and plan on buying a couple more and putting them in the rotation. Anyone else out there have a PK? Let me now how it's working for you.

    Shave On,

    Chip, my first (and still only) razor is a Prima Klang. Because everyone makes such a big deal out of how "different" that blade is, I'm a bit afraid of trying a different grind. Guess I'll just have to get another DPK. I love that thing!
