    My first razor was a Dovo Best Quality, good blade to get a start with. My other Dovo is a Bismarck and must admit, am not a fan at all. Had it honed twice, by two different honemasters, and I find the shave always wanting - never really close enough, and I get some irritation.

    I have three TI's, all very nice, no complaints there, but, "meh".

    Personally, the old blades, vintage and antique, seem to always deliver the best results for me. Having said that, each razor seems to have it's own personality IMO. The Joseph Elliot Damascus I just shaved with I expected to be good, like a typical old wedge, but not fantastic like some of my other vintage and antique blades. Lo and behold, this blade delivered an uber smooth and close shave and I was very pleasantly surprised...my two cents...more I shave with different blades, they each seem to have their own personality...no two are alike!
