Hi gentlemen -

I wanted to ask if there is anyone who can give me a bit of information on the background of one or two particular Dovo stainless steel razors that have been on the market for a few years (or off the market, as the case may be), maybe since around 2009, according to what I've read. They are known as the "All Stainless", as they have stainless steel scales as well as a stainless steel blade (I'm sure you've seen them). There was a high-polished SS scale version (model number #4155845) released, which are impossible to find these days (at least in the US), and a more common "satin" or "matte" SS scale version (model number #4155846) which is still being sold, subject to stock availability, at several retailers in the US. That's really all I know about them. Specifically, why has the polished version become so scarce? Was it a European release only? Does anyone know where it is currently being sold, if at all? Thanks.
