Thread: Dovo 5/8 half-hollow

This is actually a set but I'll piece it out if necessary. Sorry if sets are supposed to go somewhere else but it's been a long time since I've been on this site.

The razor and strop are Dovo, and the stone is a Norton 4000/8000, purchased new in 2007 and stored carefully the last 9 years since I switched over to a safety razor. I've held on to them for ages but I'm restoring a sailboat to move onto, so anything that's not absolutely necessary really needs to go, and I could use the extra cash.

The razor is a basic 5/8 half-hollow ground with plastic scales. It could probably stand to be honed. The stone could probably use a little bit of conditioning, but it's not necessary. Strop is in good shape as well. All three are in very good condition, functional, and well-kept, and will last a lifetime if you take care of them. Additionally, if you purchase this as a set it's everything you need to shave, with the exception of soap and a brush.

The pictures are quick snaps I took with my phone so if you would like a particular angle let me know and I'll get those for you.

I'll ship them however you like since you're paying, and I promise to have them in the mail within 24 hours. These prices seem reasonable to me and they're based on a quick search to see how much it would cost to get these items elsewhere, but if I'm way off feel free to educate me.

Razor: $40 plus shipping
Strop: $40 plus shipping
Stone: $50 plus shipping

If you buy the set the price for all three is $110 plus shipping.

Pm sent. .................

This is a nice starter set! Many of us started on that very Dovo 5/8" and Norton 4/8k combo (which is really all most would ever need for basic maintenance honing-I still use mine all the time).

well, the razor is sold pending payment. The stone and strop are still up for grabs at the prices listed above. Happy to entertain offers obviously, since I would like to get rid of all three eventually.

Razor is sold. New price for the strop and hone: $30 each or $50 for both. I wanted to update this thread but from now on I'll update the one in the strops and hones sub forum.
