Thread: TI Silverwing

New to the forums but just wanted to throw in my two cents. Yes, this mother is spendy. However, the overall weight, fit, feel, shape, size, blade, handles, etc. etc. etc. are all quite impressive. I had for some reason or other had it in my mind that i was going to stick to stainless blades. (Dovo MOP, and Dovo Stainless) They both were nice shavers. The MOP i felt was excellent. The stainless was my backup and never cared for it as much as the MOP. I digress...the Silverwing is without equal and makes the Dovo MOP pale in comparison. I know that i don't have nearly the experience in straight shaving as most of our season members here but the Silverwing shaves so smoothly and is a joy to handle and care for. Trust me, i dropped $$$ on a yellow belgian coticule just so that i can be sure to keep the finest edge on this baby for years of enjoyment.

We're talking about driving a Rolls Royce versus a Cadillac here. Yes you can get from point A to point B in either of them...but seriously...who turns their head to look at a Cadillac? It's worth it!

Welcome to SRP. I haven't had the Dovo MOP to compare with the TI SW but I agree that the Silverwings are truly wonderful shavers.

I have a Dovo MOP and a Silverwing and find the Dovo to give a superior shave. Shave closeness is about the same but the comfort and feedback is far better with the Dovo. Of course they are different grinds but still.
