I bought a Dovo "Best" last April or so. It is my first straight razor. Since then, I bought a sight unseen flawed from Whipped Dog (Geneva), an Edelweiss, and a King Cutter (Last two are Bokers).

I've already sent to Dovo in to be re-honed once and even then about every 4th or so use I have to run it over the fabric strop with the green crayon on it or it gets nasty. The other blades don't seem to have this problem.

Am I missing something?
