Thread: BEST NEW RAZORS?

Discounting the ones on the do not buy list and similar there are only a handful of quality factory made outfits. Dovo and TI are the largest quality producers. There are few others that have or are trying to reestablish themselves like Boker, Puma,henckels, and a few others. They all appear to be making a quality product.

for new , it would have to be a Wacker.

I would say Hart. I've had a number of new razors and I think the Hart round nose is the best.

I have a new TI, wacker, and Revisor. The Revisor is by far my best shaver. The wacker and TI are excellent too.

EDIT: I should mention...the Revisor was done up in Abalone and honed by Max. They may make a difference in the performance.

I think that my Hart Steel is an excellent razor if you would like something in between mass production and custom made at a reasonable price.

However, I have to say that of the current production razors I have tried (Dovo, Wacker, Hart, Boker) I think my little Boker Edelweiss is the best shaver. I have not tried the other current production Bokers, but if they are anything like the Edelweiss, my vote goes to Boker.

Note: I have not shaved with a Thiers razor yet.

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.
