Dovo is readily available and on everyone's website. Wade and Butcher is vintage, not in production and there's a finite supply of them out there, especially in pristine condition. Granted, you do see a lot of them, but again, Dovo is in production, W&B is not. Grab the W&B, Sheffileld steel is awesome and legandary. Get the Dovo down the road, next time, it'll still be there....Both are great blades....
Seriously i think i will :)
Don't forget to show us some pictures of whatever you purchase. :) :beer2:

A new Dovo or buy a higher end Dovo on SRP Classifieds. I have three of them and they all do shave well and take an edge well.
W&B has a good reputation too, but new or near new was my preference starting out and that was pretty much Dovo or Ti's. But there are more new choices available.
$155 is only the beginning :gaah:
