    kd7skx,

    I have one Dovo EnVogue (Micarta) with the 'Ivory' coloured scales, and one with the Anthracite scales.

    The EnVogues' (Micartas') are super shaving razors, and the above two razors form the mainstay of my rotation.

    To boot, they are also very easy to maintain

    Enjoy yours !

    Have fun !

    Best regards

    Russ

    Congrats! You will have a ton of fun with it. Easy to strop, with a nice balance to take to your face.

    For some, the Bismark noted is more comfortable to hold. Though, with Bismark's notch, it's not nearly as easy to stop consistently and smoothly as what you have coming. Stop a razor wrong, then it may lose some of its edge.

    You're razor is a solid life long shaver.

    Got it in the mail today,

    Aside from needing to brush up on my just recently acquired skills, it was a great shave. I like it a lot. Seems a little heavier than my other Dovo. All the same I am very pleased.

    Congrats on the razor. I have an Ivory Micarta and it's great. The scales are a bit heavy, but that doesn't detract from the shave.

    Default Another inox/micarta

    My skills were poor for way too long, and I stopped using the blade. The skills improved, and what do you know?! The blade miraculously improved! It's a fine shaver. Scale profile seems to be something you either love or hate. I love 'em. I would now profile the scale slightly different, but I like them alot. 'Larger hands - the larger profile is more comfortable.

    Wink Dovo Ivory Micarta SS

    With all the positive reviews I decided to break down and order a Dovo Ivory Micarta Stainless razor. I can't wait to get it! It should prove to be a great shaver and a great looking razor to boot.
