    Yep, got one of those.
    The blade's not bad. Not too hard to hone, despite being stainless. It's not well balanced though. The scales are a bit too heavy. It's ok though.

    Theirs Issard, Dovo and other razor mfgs sometimes put different etchings on the same model depending on which distributor is receiving them. I am not sure that is the situation in this instance but it very well may be. Dovo makes a good razor. If it is not shave ready it would be a good idea to send it out to an SRP honemiester unless you have the skills to do it yourself.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    No, that's the new model. It came in with the recent price rise as far as i'm aware. They were approx £80 here before & when that model was issued they jumped to £120!
