I read BeBerlin review of the Dovo Bismarck 6/8 razor and the comparison to the TI Le Grelot 6/8, 1/4 hollow, I was intrigued. Since I have the TI Le Grelot 6/8, 1/4 hollow razor and it does shave very smooth, I purchased a Dovo Bismarck 6/8 from SRD and honed by Lynn. The TI LeGrelot has also been honed by Lynn. The comparison would be equal such as apple vs. apple. I must agree and thank BeBerlin for his honest review. The Dovo Bismarck is up to par to the TI LeGrelot, a much pricier razor. Thank you BeBerlin for a great smooth shave from the Dovo Bismarck. Juan
