    Default Vintage Blades Brand Razor?

    From Vintage Blades LLC.

    Does anyone know anything about these or have experience with them? My first thought was rebranded Dovo, like the Conks, but the site says these are "completely made in the USA to our specifications. The blade blanks are cut, hardened, and finished in the USA" so that couldn't be a Dovo, right?

    Searching for reviews or info didn't turn up anything for me.

    Could it be Hart ? Or one of the custom guys going semi production ?
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    No clue who makes them I'm afraid. Definitely wouldn't be Dovo. Perhaps they've found a blade smith / knife maker to make straights for them under their own brand. They seem to be too cheap to be made by Hart.

    Unless I'm misunderstanding the question........Maybe PM or ask Lynn. He hones the razors for the vendor I think you're referring to. Vintage Blades LLC :: Manufacturers :: Vintage Blades Brand Also the 3 1/2 hour video shown in this sub link to the above Browse Our Products for a Straight Razor Kit.... "World of Straight Razor Shaving" is, I suspect, the one that is offered by Lynn here on SRP & SRD.

    If I've completely missed it.....a link would be helpful.

    Regards,

    Howard

    I wonder if there is any more info on these in the last few months? I was looking at getting one as my first straight, as I have dealt with them before and would love to support USA made blades.
