Thread: VOTE: Black or Blond

The top Black one isn't the current version... There is no third pin in the current models of Dovo Best Quality, it's an internal Blade Rest... The DBQ in black looks EXACTLY like the blonde picture, only in black... The shoulder of the blade is the same, everything. Just a differeing color.

I have black, I like it, it looks sweet.

Make sure you get it in 6/8ths though, if that's how you swing... I got a 5/8ths, then a 6/8ths Gold Dollar... 6/8ths is so much more user friendly...

Zack,

I think that razor comes in white, too. The color of purity: very nice. Have we already voted on size? I can't remember. How about a brush, soap, mug, strop, after shave, etc?

My dear Salaszch,

In this case, I would opt for the blond. No, I would rather call it cream. For this razor, the cream handle seems to paint a more traditional look, and I prefer that.

In the end, however, go with you feel matches your personality. Either way, you will not go wrong. That is a good razor, honed by the noble Lynn. Good luck.

Regards,

Obie

I like the black better

The black is classic and goes with everything.

I find the cream handle to fit that razor better then the black. Also 2 pin looks better then the 3 pin the black uses for such thin scales.

Personally, I prefer black handles. Of the other differences noted between the razors, I prefer a single ground shoulder (like on the black) and a 6/8 razor (like the blonde).

But unless you're buying the razor for me, none of that matters...

I have the black handle, but the whole time I was waiting I thought I had bought the blonde.

Mr. Blonde's razor had a black handle if that helps at all.

I think I like the blonde better, but the black one I like the 3rd pin...

Like Otto said, get both.. my first post. cherry
