Thread: Bartmann vs. Wapi (looking for an all stainless)

gregs, I'm not aware of anything that I wrote that criticized any forum members; certainly nothing could be further from my intent. I always appreciate the opinions and body of knowledge here. I simply test-drove an off-beat razor and reported my happy results. My writing style may have been off-putting to you, but I didn't intend to take anyone to task. If I didn't value these fellow members, I would never have come back to spend the time to share my thoughts and experiences. - M.

Second, there are two models of all stainless steel razors currently made by Dovo and available from dovorazors.com (scroll down), one with polished scales and one with satin.

I do know of other razors with stainless steel scales but no others with a stainless steel blade.

Actually the gold toned ones that I have which are the 5/8 ones appear to have crbon steel handles that have been nickel plated.
