    Alembic, I have seen this same razor on Amazon, and am getting ready to buy it. A 6/8 round point. It says it is a nickel plated stainless steel. Is this what you have? Is it new?

    You'd be better off buying from Dovo Razors

    Otherwise, you'll have to send it off to there or to Neil Miller to be honed once you get it.

    EDIT: Sorry, I thought I was posting on TSR. Yes, SRD is the place in the US to order from. My suggestions are for UK buyers.

    Wow. Are you saying this is a knock off? It says it is a Dovo, made in Solingen, from true tiger sales. If this is a ripoff, I owe you bigtime!

    No just carbon steel. I got mine from SRD brand spankin new 1 year ago.

    BTW - SRD has free honing for life on all their razors right now.

    Just a note guys.The free honing for life was over as of Christmas......unless they extended that.But you still can get the coupon for one free honing when purchasing a blade from them.

    You are correct, it is over. I thought I had read that it was extended. My mistake.
