First of all, Max
is that good. I'd rather shave with a spoon honed by Max than a razor honed by half the guys on the forum.
I'm not sure what the impetus is for the latest Dovo bashing, but three other points to consider.
- Having a little skill in shaving with a straight razor does not give one the knowledge to evaluate razors, let alone pass judgement on them.
- The forum is full of beginning shavers that thought Dovo's were bad, until they learned otherwise.
- Trying to evaluate the quality of a razor, and not using the same people to hone them, really pushes the envelope of credibility.
As usual it's never the fault of the user. It's always the razors fault, even if it wasn't given the same quality of honing.
