I would go with the Dovo's, personally. I've gotten to play with some of their new blades, and the quality seems good and consistant, though I stress that I've not seen many. The DA's are far less expensive but, in this regard, I think you get what you pay for. I would also second buying from SRD - you'll get free honing so long as you own the blade and they pricematch.

Its up to you whether you go brand new or not, but for that cash I would get a "shave ready" razor from the classifieds here (maybe 2 for that money if you dont want a "popular" brand).
If you absolutely must have brand new, then as others have said, Dovo make some reasonable blades in that price range.

Gentlemen,
I must second the views on the Straight Razor Design's no-frill Dovos. You cannot beat the price for the quality razor you get.
Also, the razor is honed by the noble Lynn Abrams. What more need be said?
Regards,
Obie
