    I like my Wacker(s), Dovo(s) and TI - all for different reasons.

    The Wacker has a great feel/balance and I like the overall quality the best. It is also the sexiest.
    The Dovo is simple, but a great shaver that gets the finest hairs cut.
    The TI I originally hated. Then I honed it on my own, and rounded the square point at the heel - now I love it for the way it shaves and overall feel/balance.

    I have to say my preference is for Wackers but I have not tried a TI yet...

    So can anyone say how a Puma compares to those? I am looking for a new razor that compares to my puma since it got stolen... Damn rats. I am leaning towards a dovo special but who knows.

    Was it stolen by a government worker at an airport????

    Otherwise, I do not think I have ever heard of someone having a straight razor stolen.

    I like my Chandler’s, Williams and Wacker. The new Wacker produced Dorko’s are also very nice along with the vintage Dorko. The Dovo and TI's are also nice. I have honed quite a few but do not own any. Just never got around to getting them. Almmost any razor will give you a good shave provided the hone is up the the test.

    I have a new dovo and new revisor, although the dovo is still good, the revisor takes the cake in my experience no questions.

    memorael,

    The only commercial 'new build' razors I have are Dovo & TI.

    I have a C135 full-hollow & a C135 half-hollow 5/8 TIs and the following Dovos - Best, Special, EnVogue x2 (Micarta), Prima Klang & Berg.Lowe.

    All the above I have found to be excellent shavers for me

    Have fun !

    Bets regards

    Russ

    There is no objective way to compare any two razors. They are all different and different people will prefer different razors. As long as you don't buy something that is quality, unhappiness will be personal preference.

    To answer the question, if I knew who stole my puma they would definitely have my foot up there ass.

    I tried some other razors, a TI and a Dovo and I guess the Dovo is a bit more to my licking, its the bismarck with bone handle... Gawd I miss my Puma... that was my only shaver. O well, I guess I have some razors to try. THANKS GUYS!
    Where can I get a new Dorko?

    "Where can I get a new Dorko?" Here: Raritten Vorschau look though the list. There might even be a Puma in there someplace.
