I would have bought the TI but only because I already have the Dovo and love it. It was my first and one of my favorite razors.

Thanks guys!
Just had my first complete shave with it and i was already hooked, but now i'm hooked even more! I had one rather big (about 1 cm length) cut; i thought the blade wasn't near my skin, but it was. :roflmao
I got no burn (i did get sun burn today LOL) or other cuts/nicks, really smooth shave and got almost BBS with just one n-s pass. I think i can get BBS with 2 strokes, one WTG and one XTG! Also hardly had any tugging now!
I did my whole face, with two hands nice and slow. Also tried the coup the maitre showed by my fellow Dutchman LX_Emergency, but needed a touchup ther with my DE.
Can't wait to shave with my razor honed by Lynn!
Have a nice sunday!
Gentleman,
I am so glad to see that you bought and like the Dovo Special. It's even cooler to read that you were able to hone it up yourself - I bet that felt as good as the shave.
Sorry to hear about the slice - judging by my experience it surely won't be the last. For me, application of the styptic pencil is a nice reminder to pay more attention next time! :roflmao
Good to see another straight shaver well on the way!
I've never used an alum block, so I can't compare the two. But a styptic pencil will definitely stop bleeding from small nicks and cuts, and sting like the blazes while doing it :eek: Wakes you up in the morning, believe me, and I've found (as mrbhagwan says) it provides an excellent motivation for trying hard not to cut yourself again! ;)
James.
