Dovo Encina 6/8"

It's going to be my second "nice" razor ! Hope it gets here fast ! LOL ! I'm shaving great with my Ralf Aust 5/8", wanted a nice 6/8" !

Does stainless hone the same as carbon ?

I have 7 Friodurs that all hone and shave well. I also have a Dovo with MOP scales, but have not used it because 1 piece MOP is now pretty much unavaiable and I do not want to risk breaking the scales. You should do fine starting with a shave ready razor. I enjoy not having to worry about staining and rust given reasonable razor care.

So the stainless will shave as well as a carbon blade ?

It also hones the same ?

You won't be able to tell the difference shaving.

Sometimes stainless may take few more laps on the hone. Nothing excessive though.

Cool ! Awesome to hear !

Shaving with it tomorrow ! Attachment 156145
